Dispute resolution

ANM Global expanded its contentious IP capabilities when it merged with Mumbai-based IP boutique Literati Juris in 2022. The firm’s clients in this area range from individuals to Fortune 500 companies across a multiplicity of sectors such as media and entertainment, pharmaceuticals and life sciences, e-commerce, infrastructure, transportation and technology. The firm is keen to help protect and enforce IP rights.

The key contacts for disputes are managing partner Nidhish Mehrotra, head of IP Rahul Dhote and media and entertainment specialist Anushree Rauta. Associate partner Shwetank Tripathi was hired last summer from Khaitan & Co.

In a recent highlight, the team acted for Applause Entertainment Private in a case that featured complex legal challenges such as trademark infringement and domain name disputes. The opposition was using similar marks to the client’s without authorisation in an attempt to create an unlawful association with the client’s corporate name and trademarks.
