infringement analysis

Infringement analysis is the process of determining whether a product or action violates someone else's legal rights, typically related to patents, copyrights, or trademarks. It involves comparing the accused item to the protected work or rights to see if it copies, uses, or infringes upon the original in a way that is legally unacceptable. The goal is to assess whether the new product or behavior falls within the scope of the patent or rights holder’s protection, potentially leading to legal claims or defenses. This analysis is crucial for businesses to avoid legal disputes and ensure their innovations are lawful.
