Advice on competition law<\/h2>\n\n

Das Wettbewerbsrecht<\/a> sch\u00fctzt Unternehmen vor unlauteren Gesch\u00e4ftspraktiken und sichert faire Wettbewerbsbedingungen. Eine optimale rechtliche Beratung ist daher von entscheidender Bedeutung. Unsere Dienstleistungen umfassen die Analyse von Wettbewerbsverh\u00e4ltnissen, die Erstellung und Pr\u00fcfung von Vertr\u00e4gen sowie die Durchsetzung von Anspr\u00fcchen bei Wettbewerbsverst\u00f6\u00dfen. Unsere erfahrenen Rechts- und Fachanw\u00e4lte unterst\u00fctzen Sie dabei, Ihre Rechte im Wettbewerbsrecht abzusichern und helfen Ihnen, sich gegen unlautere Praktiken zu wehren. Wir begleiten Sie bei der Durchsetzung Ihrer Anspr\u00fcche, um sicherzustellen, dass Ihr Unternehmen in einem fairen Marktumfeld agieren kann.<\/p>\n\n

Legally compliant design of advertising<\/h2>\n\n

Unlautere Werbung ist regelm\u00e4\u00dfig Gegenstand von wettbewerbsrechtlichen Abmahnungen<\/a> und stellt ein ernstes Risiko f\u00fcr Unternehmen dar. Neben irref\u00fchrenden Werbeaussagen kann auch das Fehlen von gesetzlich vorgeschriebenen Pflichtinformationen sowie die Missachtung von Kennzeichnungsvorschriften einen Wettbewerbsversto\u00df begr\u00fcnden. Um Risiken zu vermeiden, ist eine umfassende rechtliche Beratung unerl\u00e4sslich. Mit langj\u00e4hriger Erfahrung im Wettbewerbsrecht unterst\u00fctzen wir Unternehmen dabei, ihre Werbema\u00dfnahmen rechtssicher zu gestalten. Dabei k\u00f6nnen vorherige Pr\u00fcfungen von Werbematerialien, Online-Shops oder Produktverpackungen das Risiko einer wettbewerbsrechtlichen Abmahnung erheblich minimieren und Unternehmen vor wirtschaftlichen Einbu\u00dfen bewahren.<\/p>\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What is <\/p>\n\n\n\n

complementary competitive<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performance protection?<\/p>\n\n<\/div> \r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Supplementary protection of competitive performance also restricts the freedom of imitation for services that are not protected by statutory regulations such as patent, trademark, design or copyright law. Supplementary competitive performance protection protects goods and services from unfair imitation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imitations<\/strong> can not only be identical or almost identical products, but also so-called “copycat acquisitions”, i.e. products for which an existing product was used as a model.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Prerequisites<\/strong>:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Competitor<\/strong>: Supplementary competitive performance protection only exists in relation to the competitor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Competitive character<\/strong>: The counterfeited product must have a competitive character, i.e. its design must be suitable for indicating its commercial origin or its special features.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Imitation<\/strong>: The competitor must have been aware of the product that served as a model. The imitation must at least partially correspond to the original product in terms of its competitive character and be offered as the competitor’s own service. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Unfairness<\/strong>: There must be additional circumstances that justify the unfairness of the competitor’s conduct, such as the exploitation of the reputation of the counterfeit product.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

    <\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n\n

    Legally compliant drafting of contracts<\/h2>\n\n

    The drafting of contracts is another relevant factor in competition law. Contractual provisions and general terms and conditions (GTC) that comply with competition law are essential in order to minimize legal risks and guarantee fair competitive conditions. Companies that do not adapt their contracts to the requirements of competition law risk infringing competition law. By providing sound legal advice, we identify potential risks and ensure that your regulations comply with current legal requirements. In this way, we not only protect your company, but also promote fair competition in your sector. <\/p>\n\n

    Competition law disputes<\/h2>\n\n

    However, competition law disputes can also arise after thorough preparation. Last but not least, information can become outdated and no longer legally compliant as a result of legal changes or court rulings. Whether it concerns cease and desist letters or unfair conduct by competitors – we represent your interests competently and consistently enforce your laws against infringers. Our aim is to develop quick and effective solutions to limit the damage and strengthen your market position. <\/p>\n\n
