Edison did a great job going after people who were knocking off my product and got us a great settlement. It cost us nothing up front. If you're in the same boat, I would highly recommend hiring Edison shut these people down and protect your products.

Edison and their team of competent lawyers met and exceeded my expectations at a time I had lost all hope in the IP system. My IP of a tool invention was misappropriated in several ways in the last few years, one of those ways being by numerous online merchants using copyrighted material in stealing and promoting my product which I had spent over 10 years of blood, sweat and tears developing. I am very skeptical by nature and at first I automatically felt that Edison's inquiry was yet another scam when William contacted me. I threw away the first email into the trash bin. Until he called me directly. I'm glad he did. The team at Edison did a great job in convincing me. The key was how they made sure that their team was asking nothing of me other than permission. That they would fund the legal approach and that they weren't looking for anything directly from me. They also showed that they'd done their homework on my product and what had happened to it. They laid out realistic expectations and throughout the two and a half years of the process they, and the partner lawyers, showed competence and shared every little detail without hiding anything and communicated superbly. They answered every question with care and accommodated my requests in a timely manner, when it mattered. At the end it worked out that we both won against intellectual property thieves and hopefully played a small part in changing their behavior. Edison came to me at a time of need out of the blue without me knowing about them. It was as if it was meant to be. And they delivered. There are not enough words to express how grateful I am for what they did for me and my hard work, and in a small way restore some of my faith in our system of justice. Alex P.

Edison IP were exactly as presented, They discovered the extent of counterfeit products which were injuring our business. Edison then thoroughly collected evidence and successfully prosecuted the case, resulting in recovering substantial damages. A year later, other pernicious copycats were using our design, marketing material and trademark, so we went back to Edison IP resulting in another successful prosecution with substantial damages recovered. Thank You Edison for looking after us.

We've been working with Edison for years now to protect our IP. At first it seems too good to be true, but after over 3 years of working with them, I can attest to their professionalism, timely communication, hard work, and amazing results!

My experience with Edison was great. At first I thought it was too good to be true but they delivered on everything they promised. The overall process took a little over a year to complete and I'm very happy with the results.

We aired on Shark Tank for our product Turbo Trusser in the fall of 2022. Immediately afterwards, counterfeit products started to show up on Amazon, Walmart etc. We found Edison IP and they have been amazing to work with. After the first meeting, they immediately went to work and have been able to successfully recover significant funds for us. Without their diligence we would have recovered zero funds. Also, this required no money upfront from our company. Edison is a five-star service for companies and entrepreneurs who want to hold counterfeiters accountable. This process was very efficient and required little work on our end. Highly recommended. Brian - Turbo Trusser

10/10 would recommend. These guys are the best. They go after your copycats and infringers and shut them down for good. If you have a copycat problem on amazon, you need them.

I can’t say enough good things about this process. Edison IP was very diligent in researching and presenting evidence to support a successful prosecution of counterfeit and knock off products across multiple marketplaces. My company received a substantial settlement payout from multiple platforms. The real win was a threefold increase in business revenues across our e-commerce channels after the knock offs have been eliminated.

Edison IP really helped us when we needed it. They clearly strive for excellence and went the extra mile to show they care. A strong team who was thorough, responsive, transparent, and professional. I was also impressed by their platform, which continued to get better over time. Recommend

I have worked with Hilton and his team for the past 2 years. I will make this very simple. Without them, my business would have failed. I have never encountered a more stand up group of individuals who feel the same passion for my company. They recovered nearly $200,000 for us that saved our company and saved us from the plague of knock off products that swarmed Amazon, Shopify, Ebay and just about any other platform you could imagine. Their reporting, diligence, and communication were tier one and never once felt like I didn't have a fleet of attorney fire power behind us. I seriously cannot say enough incredible things about the work they did for us. If you are encountering anything similar with your brand there is no other option. Pull the trigger on working with them and thank me later.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of intellectual property do you enforce?

If counterfeiters have infringed on your trademarks, copyrights, or patents*, we can help. IP not registered yet? Don’t worry, we can help with that too.
*We can enforce design patents, and to a more limited extent, utility patents.

Are you a law firm?

Edison is not a law firm but we partner with some of the top IP law firms around the world to help our clients file lawsuits and enforce their IP.

Aren't lawsuits expensive?

With Edison’s Lawsuit Solution, you’ll pay nothing up front. Edison will front all legal expenses, our partner attorneys work on contingency, and we only make money when you do. Because of this, we only take on cases we know we can win. Contact us to learn if our legal strategy might be a good fit for your brand.

My infringers are based in China. How can you collect money from them?

We sue counterfeiters in US Federal court and freeze the money in their e-commerce accounts (Amazon, Walmart, PayPal, etc.). With this as leverage, the infringers will typically settle or abandon the money in their accounts.

Does your Takedowns solution use software and/or AI?

Yes, but unlike our competitors, we don’t rely solely on software to identify infringement. One of our experienced legal analysts will get to know the ins and outs of your intellectual property and stay one step ahead of the counterfeiters as they monitor the e-commerce landscape on a weekly or daily basis. Software is no longer enough. Counterfeiters have outsmarted the automated solutions already by editing copyrighted photographs to evade AI detection, or modifying trademark usage (N1ke vs. Nike) to evade scraping software. With people + software, you get the best of both worlds. And with Edison, a personal response is only an email away.

What marketplaces do you cover?

We cover all the major e-commerce marketplaces (Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Shopify, Alibaba, Aliexpress, DHGate, Temu, Wish, etc.) and are constantly adding new marketplaces to our list. Contact us for an up to date list of covered marketplaces.

What's the time commitment for a lawsuit?

We pride ourselves on being a turn-key service, handling most of the interfacing with the law firm on your behalf. A typical client spends only a handful of ours in total on case-related tasks (filling out survey-type questions, signing legal documents) and we handle the rest!

If we take down infringing listings, can we still include them in a lawsuit?

Yes. With our full-service option, we can take down listings right away using our takedowns service to minimize lost sales, and then sue the infringers later to recover lost profits. Just because a listing gets taken down doesn’t mean you can’t file a lawsuit against the infringer for the damage done to your brand. In fact, we specialize in doing both at once, for the best of both worlds.

How much money could I make from working with Edison?

If your brand is a good fit for our lawsuit service, you could collect money from your counterfeiters and recoup lost profits. While it is impossible to predict how much we’ll collect, the average Edison case settlement is hundreds of thousands of dollars.

How does Edison make money?

In addition to the paid takedowns services we offer for a monthly subscription rate, in our lawsuits, Edison collects a percentage of the case’s settlements. The law firm works on contingency, and then Edison and the client split the remaining proceeds after expenses are deducted.

What risks are there to filing a lawsuit against my infringers?

Edison and its partner law firms vet each potential client’s case and only take on cases we can win. In over 5 years of filing anti-counterfeiting lawsuits, Edison’s clients have never lost a case, nor have they ever had infringers retaliate. We’re so confident in our strategy, if we don’t win your case and make you money, Edison pays all legal fees and you owe nothing.

Does your strategy work with what my lawyers are already doing to protect my IP?

Yes. Typically, in-house counsel are not well-versed in this niche legal strategy known as Schedule A anti-counterfeiting lawsuits. That’s where we come in. Our expert IP lawyers will work in parallel with your in-house counsel to ensure that you’re maximizing your options to fight counterfeiters on all fronts. Our lawsuits complement other strategies you may already be utilizing such as ITC actions, Amazon’s APEX program, and DMCA takedowns.

How are you different from other takedowns services?

Edison’s Takedowns service is different in 3 main ways: 1) Humans + AI. Unlike our competitors, we don’t rely solely on software to identify infringement. One of our experienced legal analysts will get to know the ins and outs of your intellectual property and stay one step ahead of the counterfeiters as they monitor the e-commerce landscape on a weekly or daily basis. Software is no longer enough. Counterfeiters have outsmarted the automated solutions already by editing copyrighted photographs to evade AI detection, or modifying trademark usage (N1ke vs. Nike) to evade scraping software. With people + software, you get the best of both worlds. 2) Personalized customer service. Unlike our competitors, you get more than just a flashy dashboard. You’ll have a point person assigned to your brand to ensure custom requests and questions are accommodated in a timely manner. 3) Built-in lawsuits. With Edison’s years of expertise in anti-counterfeiting lawsuits, our Takedowns service is built with lawsuits in mind. We gather courtroom-ready evidence in parallel to issuing takedowns so that when we reach a critical mass of infringers, initiating a lawsuit is seamless. We even purchase one item from each infringer and ship it to our warehouses where we inspect and catalog it for use as evidence. None of our competitors offer this sample purchasing service, which is a crucial step in ensuring your lawsuit is as strong as possible.

It seems too good to be true. What am I missing?

We get this a lot (just read our Google reviews!) but Edison’s solutions are not a scam. With our Takedowns and Lawsuit services, your brand will be protected from counterfeiters. We can’t stop them completely, but we can help make counterfeiting your brand less desirable.
