Landmark decision of the CJEU in trademark law in the case C-125/14 - Be Impulsive

September 4, 2015. – Our attorneys represented Unilever N.V. in the landmark decision of the Court of Justice of the European Union in trademark law in the case C-125/14 - Be Impulsive.

Our leading attorney of the case, Dr. Péter LUKÁCSI comments:

"The decision of the Court of Justice of the European Union is consistent with the opinion of the Advocate General which was to be expected. It will be interesting to see how the Courts interpret the notion of “commercially significant part of the relevant public” going forward. Hopefully this can be clarified in the near future as uncertainty is not good for any brand owner, big or small."
