Event Synopsis:
Consumer surveys play an important evidentiary role in various aspects of trademark and false advertising litigation, as well as other types of cases. In trademark cases, surveys commonly are used to establish secondary meaning and likelihood of confusion. In Lanham Act advertising litigation, surveys most typically are used to prove implied falsity. And in consumer class action litigations, surveys more and more are used in opposition to motions for class certification. Finally, in various areas of the law, surveys are growing in use in the context of assessing damages or their absence.
In this two-hour Live Webcast, a panel of distinguished professionals assembled by The Knowledge Group will help the audience understand the important aspects of Consumer Surveys for Trademark and False Advertising Cases. Speakers will offer best practices and latest insights for this significant topic.
Key issues that will be covered in this course are:
- The Role of Consumer Surveys In Trademark and False Advertising Disputes
- Do’s and Don’ts in the Design and Use of Consumer Surveys
- Key Issues and Common Pitfalls
- Important recent survey decisions
