In German unfair competition law, the monitoring of unfair competition has been handed to the companies. They are requested to enforce their claims against violators as well as to defend themselves against warning / cease and desist letters, legitimate or not. Especially the recent amendment of the German unfair competition law (UWG) has increased the legal requirements in particular for companies in the e-commerce business. Our experience of more than ten years with almost every panel for unfair competition in Germany and the involvement in pathbreaking judgements in the field of unfair competition law will help you in making your company safe concerning unfair competition law.
