In intellectual property matters, unfair competition is a practice that consists in creating a risk of confusion in the mind of the consumer as to the origin of the products and\/or services he consumes. The risk of confusion can be characterized by the use of a trademark or any other distinctive sign of a third party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the principle of free competition has been recognized in France since the Le Chapelier law (end of the 18th century), market players must nevertheless act fairly by respecting the laws and customs of commerce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
