Unfair competition

Whether a competitor is copying your offer, poaching your staff, or soliciting your clients using your own information, in cases of unfair competition, every week lost works to the advantage of the perpetrator.

Les situations

01 — Commercial parasitism

When a third party rides on your coattails to profit from your investments, reputation, or expertise without spending a dime. The firm establishes the economic value you have created and how it has been misappropriated.

02 — Mass poaching of employees

Recruiting an employee from a competitor is generally permitted. It becomes wrongful when it aims to disrupt the company: serial departures, taking a key team all at once, or leaving with confidential information.

03 — Client poaching

When a former employee, partner, or associate solicits your clients by exploiting your files, pricing structures, or by creating confusion with your business. The firm tracks the evidence and assesses the lost revenue.

04 — Anti-competitive practices

Collusion between competitors, abuse of a dominant position, or economic dependency. These disputes are subject to specific rules and jurisdictions: the firm first evaluates the most effective path to assert your rights.
