Advertising Challenges and Litigation

Winston & Strawn's advertising practice represents clients before the National Advertising Division (NAD) of the Council of Better Business Bureaus and its appellate body, the National Advertising Review Board (NARB). In recent years, we have handled as many as 10 percent of the challenges that came before the NARB. Our attorneys also have handled numerous advertising and intellectual property cases before the courts and agencies involving unfair competition, trade name and service mark infringement, and consumer protection claims. We have a particularly active practice defending clients in false advertising class actions brought under Section 17200 of California's unfair business practices regulations.
