What Insurance Covers Trademark Infringement?

A dispute may involve a competitor’s mark in an ad, product label, domain, software interface, or business name. CFC describes IP infringement defense, while an NAIC study discusses general liability exclusions for trademark and other IP claims.

Ask which uses and media are covered, whether knowing violations or media businesses are excluded, and whether the policy includes defense for the specific trademark allegation. Do not assume advertising-related wording covers every use.
