Intellectual Property (IP) Investigations

Protecting your intellectual property is vital in today’s competitive market. The Investigators New Zealand specialises in intellectual property investigations and research to safeguard your innovations, designs, and creations. Our expert team conducts comprehensive investigations to identify infringements, unauthorised use, and counterfeit products.

We begin by thoroughly understanding your specific intellectual property and the nature of your concerns. Our investigations cover patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets, ensuring a comprehensive protection strategy. For patent investigations, we examine patent applications and granted patents to identify potential infringements. We analyse product designs, manufacturing processes, and technical specifications to uncover instances where your patents may have been violated.

Trademark investigations involve monitoring the market for unauthorised use of your brand name, logo, or other identifying marks. We conduct extensive searches in business directories, online marketplaces, and social media platforms to detect counterfeit products and brand misuse. Our team also investigates the origins of these infringements, tracing them back to their source to gather actionable evidence.

For copyright protection, we scrutinise various media, including print, digital, and audio-visual content, to identify unauthorised reproductions or distributions of your work. We employ advanced digital forensics to trace the spread of pirated content online, helping you take swift action against violators. Our investigations extend to trade secrets, where we assess potential leaks and unauthorised disclosures. We analyse communication records, employee activities, and digital footprints to identify breaches and ensure your confidential information remains secure.

Our comprehensive approach includes gathering evidence to support legal actions. We provide detailed reports that document our findings, complete with photographic and video evidence, expert analysis, and a clear explanation of how the infringements occurred. These reports are designed to be used in legal proceedings, offering robust support for your case. Our investigators are also available to testify in court, providing expert witness testimony to strengthen your position.

We understand the importance of timely and effective action in protecting intellectual property. Our team works diligently to uncover infringements quickly, allowing you to respond promptly and minimise any potential damage. We also offer ongoing monitoring services to keep your intellectual property protected over the long term. By regularly scanning the market for new threats, we help you stay one step ahead of potential infringers.

In addition to identifying and addressing infringements, we provide strategic advice on enhancing your intellectual property protection. This includes recommendations for improving your patent and trademark applications, securing copyrights, and safeguarding trade secrets. Our goal is to help you build a robust intellectual property portfolio that deters potential infringers and supports your business growth.
