Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Work highlights
Represented Guowang Group in the administrative litigation at both the first and second instances. Through our diligent work, both the Beijing IP Court and the Chinese Supreme Court upheld the decision to invalidate the competing patent, ensuring that the Masterwork Group's patent remains valid.
Represented HC SemiTek in the litigation. The successful conclusion of this case helped the client avoid substantial infringement damages, ensured the normal operation of its critical product line, and effectively safeguarded the client's rights and interests.
Argued on behalf of plaintiff JD during the litigation stage that the third party had added other elements to the disputed trademark in actual use, combining it with the unregistered "JDH", which fully incorporates "JD," a well-known trademark of JD, as well as the distinctive part of the domain name JD.COM.
