I want to sue an offshore Internet company for trademark infringement, but I can't find its physical office to deliver the complaint. Will I be able to serve the company with the suit, or is my only option to give up on the case?
Don't give up hope. There are several ways to serve your complaint, either in the U.S. or abroad. In fact, a federal appellate court recently permitted a U.S. trademark holder to serve a Costa Rican company by e-mail. If the infringer's operations are primarily Web-based, then e-mail service could be your best bet.
