Toy designers often face recurring intellectual property infringement claims. In this session, we will examine common issues such as copyright infringement of product manuals, trade dress disputes over packaging, and trademark claims involving seemingly generic terms. We will also discuss cost-effective strategies to avoid these risks, including leveraging AI tools, conducting trademark and trade dress searches on the USPTO website, performing patent searches through Google Patents, and utilizing the Copyright Office’s record searches.
