PRACTICE AREAS
U.S. FEDERAL IP LITIGATION
Cross-Border IP Disputes, Trademark & Patent Infringement
LawMay P.C. represents international businesses in intellectual property disputes before federal courts across the United States, including the Central and Northern Districts of California, the Northern District of Illinois, the Western District of Washington, the Eastern District of Texas, and the Southern District of Florida. Our work spans patent, trademark, and copyright litigation, trade secret misappropriation, and unfair competition claims.
We manage cases from the earliest stages of emergency relief—such as temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions—through jurisdiction and venue challenges, claim construction, discovery, dispositive motions, and trial. Our approach integrates procedural precision with a clear focus on achieving results that protect and advance our clients’ commercial interests.
E-COMMERCE ENFORCEMENT & DEFENSE
Amazon Takedown Disputes, Platform Complaints, Infringement Actions
We assist e-commerce businesses in protecting their brands and defending their online presence across major platforms, including Amazon, Walmart, Temu, Shein, and TikTok. Our enforcement work targets counterfeit products, unauthorized resellers, and infringing listings, while our defense practice focuses on overturning wrongful takedowns and resolving IP disputes quickly to restore sales.
We regularly represent clients in Amazon’s Patent Evaluation procedures—covering both the Neutral Patent Evaluation and APEX programs—guiding them through evidence preparation, claim analysis, and strategic submissions to achieve favorable outcomes. Our experience also includes negotiating settlements, coordinating with platform teams for expedited reinstatement, and aligning enforcement strategies with broader litigation or brand protection goals.
IP STRATEGY & PORTFOLIO COUNSELING
We work with businesses to create and implement IP strategies that support global growth and smooth market entry. Our services cover the full lifecycle of IP portfolio management, including coordinating global filings, managing prosecution across jurisdictions, and conducting freedom-to-operate and patent landscape analyses.
We also provide design-around guidance to reduce infringement risks, structure licensing opportunities, and enhance the long-term value of IP assets. By integrating legal protection with commercial objectives, we help clients turn intellectual property into a strategic advantage.
