Anti-Counterfeiting

We believe Corrs is the leading firm in anti-counterfeiting litigation. In 2003 we acted on over 600 cases and did not lose a single case. Corrs has a very high success rate in stopping infringers. As well as requiring infringers to place prominent corrective advertisements, Corrs has a history of achieving high dollar-value judgements in excess of industry standards. Our success is due to a thorough and tenacious approach, coupled with an intimate understanding of our clients’ businesses.

Around 10% of the trade marks registered with the Australian Customs Service are Corr's clients - probably the highest proportion for any law firm - and include Cartier, Ferrari, Hugo Boss, Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, Loewe, Alfred Dunhill, Tommy Hilfiger, adidas, Nike, Maserati, Nokia, Caterpillar, Lacoste, MontBlanc, Piaget, Celine, Vans, Weber Barbeques, Baume & Mercier, Grand Marnier, Givenchy, Fendi, Oakley, Veuve Clicquot, Quiksilver, Foster's, Moët & Chandon and The French Government Cognac Office.
