E-Commerce

Brann & Isaacson has decades of experience representing online and multichannel retailers, starting with our partnership with L.L. Bean which began in the 1960s.

Our nationally recognized team navigates the complexities of taxation, privacy, intellectual property, and product safety issues, ensuring our clients thrive in an ever-evolving e-commerce landscape. We defend against “patent trolls” and privacy shakedowns, but also securing international trademark protection for our clients. That makes us the go-to firm for online sellers seeking to optimize compliance and mitigate risks.

Our decades of experience informs our assured approach—meaning shorter learning curves, greater efficiency, and quicker responses.

Where We Excel

State Taxation

Data Privacy

“B&I is the first to alert us to pending legislation, new laws, and regulations and new legal theories used by plaintiff’s attorneys with regard to online interactions between consumers and companies. They understand the intersection between the legal world and technology used on the internet which allows them to make connections and give advice that other attorneys can’t.”

Class Actions & Arbitrations

“In a search for class action and mass arbitration counsel with deep e-commerce experience, we came to know B&I. We’re glad we did. We’ve found their counsel to be practical, responsive, and creative in ways we haven’t experienced working with other firms. B&I has become our first call for any mass consumer actions.”
