Common Platform Disputes: A Practical Guide to Procedures and Strategy

REVERA Arbitrarion Team has prepared the review of guide to common platform dispute issues and mechanics.

Digital platforms are becoming a key business environment, from mobile applications to gaming and marketplace ecosystems. At the same time, the number of disputes related to intellectual property and commercial interests is growing.

Today, platform disputes cover a wide range of grounds:

  • copyright infringement
  • use of trade marks
  • unfair competition
  • patents and trade secrets
  • contractual disputes

At the same time, each platform has its own complaint-handling procedures, from filing a complaint to submitting a counter-notice and possible court proceedings.

Practice shows that protecting rights on platforms requires a clear understanding of procedures and deadlines.

Practical work on disputes includes:

  • reinstatement of blocked applications

  • monitoring of infringements
  • comprehensive IP protection
