The Process

Every Infringement Recovery case follows the same four-step process. CounterFind handles steps 1, 2, and 4. Our legal partners file in U.S. federal court.

Defendant Identification

CounterFind's AI-enhanced brand protection software identifies foreign-based counterfeiters actively targeting the U.S. market.

Evidence Collection

Evidence of intellectual property infringement is systematically gathered and compiled to satisfy federal court requirements.

Legal Action

A U.S. federal complaint is filed by our legal partners, triggering court orders and subpoenas that freeze counterfeiters' funds and uncover their true identities.

Financial Recovery

Settlements are negotiated, frozen funds seized, infringing stores permanently closed, and statutory damages awarded via default judgment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my brand is eligible?

To qualify, your brand needs a registered U.S. trademark and/or copyright, and sufficient counterfeit activity. If you’re already a Brand Defender client, there's a good chance you're a strong candidate. Reach out to your account manager or contact us directly and we'll assess your eligibility at no cost.

What does it cost to participate in CounterFind’s Infringement Recovery program?

The program operates on a contingency fee basis and is available exclusively to CounterFind’s clients. There are no upfront costs and you will never receive a bill.

How quickly can we get started?

Fast. Once contracts are signed, evidence collection begins immediately.

Where does the money come from?

All recovered funds come directly from settlements with infringing sellers and from amounts frozen in their seller accounts.

How long until we see a financial return?

Once your case is filed, recovered funds are typically distributed within 6 to 9 months.

How do you protect our brand's reputation?

The sellers targeted in these cases are almost exclusively foreign-based, low-volume and small independent sellers. We help exclude these from the defendant pool so your brand is protected throughout, which significantly reduces the risk of US media attention.

What if one of our authorized retailers gets caught up in the case?

This is very rare, but if it does happen, any authorized licensee or retailer mistakenly named as a defendant can be dismissed from the case as soon as they're identified.

What do we actually have to do to get the case filed?

Very little. We handle the heavy lifting. You just need to review the defendant pool and sign the case declaration. Most clients complete this in under an hour.
