Prevence has successfully represented and advised UAB Energia Futura, one of the leading Lithuanian solar energy companies. The client’s interests were defended in court in a dispute regarding unfair competition practices and illegal use of a legal entity’s name. The case was handled by Andželika Buivydaitė, who provided legal advice on all related issues.

The company found to have infringed the law was ordered to stop using the contested trademark in its commercial activities and advertising, and to pay the client’s legal costs.

Cases such as this one underline the importance of taking precautionary steps when setting up a new company to ensure that the company name or the trademark created does not have to be changed later. Proper registration of a trademark protects against competitors who seek to engage in unfair practices or attempt to register a similar trademark in their own name or through related parties.

Prevence team provides legal advice on all matters relating to IP protection, registration and dispute resolution.
