Solution
Our operative infiltrated the organization of the counterfeiter and amassed sufficient information for the perpetrators to be jailed and their assets seized.

Client
A manufacturer of specialized production equipment.

Assignment
A senior employee had left to form a new business that rapidly became successful by supplying customers with products and services very similar to those provided by the client.

Solution
Epoch was able to demonstrate that the competitor was using intellectual property stolen from the client and provide sufficient evidence for the client to initiate legal action.
