Louis Vuitton: Vigilant Guardian of Intellectual Property

Louis Vuitton is considered one of the most aggressive and active brands to monitor and enforce its intellectual property rights.🛡️💡

One instance of such protection involved a lawsuit against a fried chicken restaurant in South Korea, known as “Louis Vuiton Dak.”🇰🇷🍗

Louis Vuitton filed a lawsuit against the Korean company, alleging, among other things, a high degree of similarity between the trademarks in question.™️👩🏼‍💼👨🏿‍💼🧑🏼‍💼

During these proceedings, the court ruled that the restaurant’s name and emblem were too similar to Louis Vuitton’s designs.

Subsequently, the defendant – the owner of the restaurant – changed its name to ‘Louisvui Tondak’. Despite this, he received a notice for failing to comply with the court’s ruling.📩👨🏽‍⚖️👩🏼‍⚖️🧑🏻‍⚖️

Therefore, it’s important to remember that even with a registered trademark, continuous monitoring for potential infringements is necessary.™️📡
