Pham & Associates advised Duy Loi Co., Ltd in the 15 years of development
From the
foundation, Duy Loi Co., Ltd was very interested in protection of intellectual
property rights. Apart from the number of protected industrial designs and
trademarks, at least 20 patent registrations have been granted to the CEO, Mr.
Lam Tan Loi. In the domestic
market, Duy Loi cooperated closely with Pham & Associates in the fight
against counterfeit goods in the whole country such as Thanh Hoa, Bac Ninh and
Hai Duong provinces ect. About Pham & Associates Pham & Associates is an intellectual
property law firm in Vietnam. We provide counsel and representation in every
area of patents, trademarks, copyrights, enforcement of intellectual property
rights as well as their representation in arbitration and litigation
proceedings …
During the past 15 years of development, Duy Loi challenged 2 times in the United
States and Japan in protection its legitimate interests and rights. Accordingly,
in 2001, Duy Loi discovered its hammock industrial design was applied for
patent registration in the U.S. under a Taiwanese name - Chung Sen Wu. At that
time, Duy Loi was only interested in protection under industrial designs in
domestic. If Duy Loi lost the IP rights in the U.S., it meant that the products
of Duy Loi would not enter into the U.S. market. On behalf of the client, Pham &
Associates filed a cancellation action with the U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office to cancel the above-mentioned patent. One year later, Duy Loi
successfully regained its legitimate interests and right in the U.S.
In 2002, while Duy Loi’s hammock products achieved an excellent reputation in
domestic and abroad market such as China, Taiwan, Japan, Duy Loi received a
cease & desist letter from Miki Johnson Company. By clear and convincing
evidences submitted to the Japan Patent Office (JPO), the JPO upheld Duy Loi
and canceled the utility model registration in the name of Miki Johnson. In
March 2003, the products of Duy Loi returned to Japanese market.
Congratulation on the success of Duy Loi, a well-known brand in the past 15
years of development.
