A number of cases have occurred, where some of them are even related to international trademarks owned by foreign companies such as the case of IKEA Sweden with IKEA (Intan Equatorial Esa Abadi), Toyota Lexus with ProLexus, or DC Comics with Superman wafers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Implications of Trademark Disputes<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Of course, brand disputes cause huge losses. According to CompuMark&#8217;s research, as many as 75% of companies process trademark dispute cases to court. The impact of litigation can reduce revenue, plus court costs can reach $ 50,000 &#8211; $ 249,999. Moreover, if the company has to replace entire brand elements such as their name, design, logo, and change of brand image, the costs will be even greater.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Apart from financial aspects, issues related to brand disputes can also affect the brand image of the company. Consumers often feel confused because the brand names are similar to one another. It also affects consumer trust and loyalty which might decline because the company is considered to have no integrity in doing business such that brand disputes would occur.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Trademark Investigation as Anticipation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Brand dispute cases can have broad implications. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research related to trademarks circulating in the market so that there are no missteps in determining which brand will be published.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Research and investigation require a long time to be carried out by internal companies themselves. Therefore, Integrity Indonesia as a trusted and experienced investigator service provides trademark investigation and non-use investigation services to conduct research related to trademarks.
