Monetary Relief (law)




Monetary relief is but one form of protection available to trademark owners under the Lanham Act. Monetary relief may include provable damages, attorneys fees, corrective advertising costs, lost profits (either defendants or plaintiffs), prejudgment interest, punitive damages, reasonable royalty or treble damages. Monetary awards are not required when infringement has occurred. The court has wide discretion under principles of equity to grant or deny such relief, and frequently requires a finding of intentional infringement before making such a reward.
