Litigation Surveys and Rebuttals Library

Welcome to the MMR Strategy Group library for litigation surveys and rebuttals. These resources include case studies from our expert testimony work, in which we provide litigation surveys or survey rebuttals in matters involving likelihood of confusion, secondary meaning, genericness, likelihood of dilution, false or deceptive advertising, and other intellectual property issues.

Our litigation surveys and rebuttals blog posts feature news, trends, and recent decisions in intellectual property law, covering federal and state courts, the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB), the National Advertising Division (NAD) of the Council of Better Business Bureaus, and other venues. Lastly, our litigation surveys and rebuttals white papers cover litigation surveys, methodologies, and practice in detail. Thank you for visiting, and please subscribe to our newsletter for updates.

Litigation Surveys and Rebuttals Case Studies

Our survey experts have conducted hundreds of litigation surveys and provided expert testimony in front of federal courts, state courts, the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB), the National Advertising Division (NAD), the International Trade Commission (ITC), and other venues. In these case studies, we explain how we designed surveys and defended them through expert testimony. These case studies also provide examples of rebuttals we have provided in response to surveys from other experts.

Litigation Surveys and Rebuttals FAQ

At what stage of a legal proceeding should I retain a survey expert?
Survey experts may be retained at any stage of a case. Law firms have retained MMR Strategy Group at many points prior to trial.
How much time does a litigation survey take?
A number of factors determine the length of a survey for litigation evidence, including the consumer population you wish to reach, the type of survey, the complexity of the case, whether the work is a survey or a rebuttal, and when you retain MMR. We deliver reliable, credible expertise, which cannot be done hastily, but we understand that litigators work under deadlines and we work with clients to ensure that we can meet their needs.
How much will a litigation survey cost?
We evaluate costs on a case-by-case basis, but some factors that go into that evaluation include your timeline, what measurements need to be taken, the consumer population being measured, and the type of proceeding. Reaching members of a specialized profession, for example, is more difficult and will likely cost more than reaching members of the general public.
Where do MMR Strategy Group litigation survey experts testify?
MMR Strategy Group experts have testified before federal and state courts, the National Advertising Division of the Better Business Bureau, the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, the International Trade Commission, and other regulatory bodies. We conduct research, provide reports, and testify about our findings whether you require rebuttals or survey evidence.
Do MMR Strategy Group survey experts provide rebuttals to other testifying experts?
Yes, our experts have been retained many times to rebut other experts. In some cases, we are retained to provide a rebuttal along with a survey and supporting testimony; in other cases, our rebuttal work stands alone.
