Our process adapts to each marketplace, ensuring accuracy, traceability, and legal soundness.
For many brands, the instinct is to strike back with trademark or counterfeit takedowns. Amazon even makes it easy—file a claim, watch the seller disappear, and believe the problem is solved.
But that “win” is often deceptive. Filing inaccurate or overly broad complaints against legitimate sellers can backfire quickly. Some resellers are well-prepared with legal representation, and if your claim doesn’t hold up, you risk penalties, legal costs, and damaged credibility. Worse still, you lose time fighting battles that don’t solve the root problem.
The better path is proactive brand protection. Instead of chasing every listing, address the issue at its source—investigate your supply chain, identify leaks, and enforce MAP where it truly matters. By tightening distribution and monitoring new entry points, you prevent unauthorized inventory from ever reaching online marketplaces.
• Prevent unauthorized sales before they happen
• Protect your reputation without legal exposure
• Save resources by solving root causes, not symptoms
• Create a level playing field for authorized partners
• Maintain long-term control over pricing, channels, and customer trust
False takedowns create risk. Proactive protection builds resilience.
That’s how brands stop losing revenue—and start winning.

Yes. We help brands report and remove counterfeit listings on Amazon through Amazon Brand Registry and other applicable Amazon enforcement processes.
Our team reviews each case, prepares the necessary evidence, manages the submission process, and follows through until the case is resolved.
Yes. Brand Alignment’s team includes legal enforcement support to escalate matters when simple takedowns aren’t enough. In most cases, our standard takedown process through marketplaces is effective. However, if a counterfeiter is persistent or operating off-platform (for example, their own website selling knock-offs), we can escalate to legal actions. This might include sending cease-and-desist letters, working with law enforcement or investigators, or coordinating with our network of IP attorneys to pursue further action. We aim to not only remove the immediate fake listings but also deter counterfeiters from targeting your brand in the future.
Removal time depends on the marketplace and jurisdiction.
On platforms such as Walmart or eBay, removals typically occur within 24 hours to one week once authorization (e.g., Power of Attorney) is verified.
If proof of purchase cannot be provided, we file a Trademark Infringement report, which usually leads to the same result.
