Loeb & Loeb LLP is pleased to announce that partner David Mallen will be speaking at ACI's 2nd Annual Legal, Regulatory & Compliance Forum on Cosmetics on a panel titled, "Preparing for Challenges From Your Competitors Under the Lanham Act in the Cosmetics Industry and Considering When to Bring a Lanham Act Challenge".
