In an effective brand protection programme, the legal function is pivotal.

Wescott BPI regards in-house and external counsel as one legal team. The legal team will:

• Execute agreed legal strategies
• Support and guide the investigators
• Interact with the claims analysts
• Liaise with the product marking and public affairs groups

Where external counsel has not been retained, Wescott BPI can work with the Brand Protection Unit of its parent, Duane Morris. Among the 100 largest law firms in the United States, Duane Morris is a full-service firm with more than 550 lawyers. The firm represents clients across the US and around the world through a combination of more than 20 offices and a relationship with an international network of independent law firms.
