German trademark owner wins $1 million trademark infringement verdict in U.S. district court

After a bench trial, United States Federal District Court Judge Stefan Underhill ordered Voss Laundry Solutions to pay more than $1 million in attorney fees, attorney costs and penalties to its former German parent. The defendant had at one time been a subsidiary of the plaintiff. After the two companies split, the defendant Voss Laundry continued to use the Lavatec name. Interestingly, the vast majority of the $1 million award comes from attorneys fees.
