Unauthorized use of trademark and identity fraud investigation for PANDERO. Estudio Olaechea is representing PANDERO in a white-collar crime case involving charges against former employee Kaly Del Águila Perea. The allegations include unauthorized patent use, generic falsification, forgery, and identity theft. Del Águila Perea allegedly set up a fake PANDERO agency in Pucallpa, advertising under the PANDERO brand, creating a Facebook page with the company’s name, registering PANDERO in his personal tax ID, and even falsifying invoices.
Active case management and comprehensive support. Estudio Olaechea has provided extensive support, from analysing the facts and identifying the alleged crimes, to drafting and submitting the formal complaint. We have also assisted with preparing and supporting the legal representative’s testimony and have maintained ongoing oversight, culminating in the issuance of a formal investigation by the Prosecutor’s Office.
Relevant and precedents setting case: This case is significant as it demonstrates the client’s proactive stance against a former employee’s damaging actions, setting a precedent for permissible actions within the company. Additionally, the complaint serves as groundwork to counter any retaliatory measures the former employee might undertake against PANDERO.
Latest development: The Prosecutor’s Office has formally opened a preparatory investigation against Kaly Del Águila Perea, finding preliminary evidence of the alleged crimes. Further proceedings are forthcoming.
