Co-Existence Agreements

Co-Existence Agreements are legal arrangements between two or more companies that own similar trademarks or brands. These agreements allow the companies to use their trademarks in specific ways without conflict. For example, one company may agree to limit its trademark's use in certain markets or products, while the other may do the same. This helps prevent confusion among consumers and protects each company's brand identity. Essentially, it's a way for businesses to operate alongside each other amicably, ensuring that they can coexist in the marketplace without infringing on each other's rights.
