Trusted by foreign companies worldwide
“Cherish is the only legal professional who not only understands Amazon's legal framework but also provides practical, cost-effective solutions for quick results.”
“Cherish helped us resolve a copyright infringement complaint professionally and promptly. The compensation was negotiated down, and a settlement was reached within 48 hours. Cherish is trustworthy and passionate.”
“Cherish's efficiency is extremely high. From consultation to settlement and receiving the dismissal order, it took only one week. Her patient communication and timely follow-up made the process smooth.”
“Our collaboration with Cherish was incredibly fast and reliable. The case was underway within an hour, and a satisfactory settlement was reached in just six hours. Communication was smooth and effortless.”
“This is my second collaboration with Cherish. Her excellent communication, diligence, and prompt responses led to a satisfactory outcome in just two weeks. I am extremely grateful for her hard work.”
“We expected the customs disclosure to end in a painful penalty. Instead we paid what we owed, kept our AEO application on track, and finally understood our own royalty declarations.”
“Cherish has helped us solve patent-related issues multiple times with her professional knowledge and quick, effective advice. Having a reliable patent consultant like her is invaluable.”
“The arbitration felt hopeless from Brazil — the machines were here, the manufacturer was there. Atlas built the evidence, won the award and then actually collected it. That last part is what other firms never promised.”
“Closing a production line with 76 people felt like walking into a minefield. Their team mapped every step, sat with our employees through the signings, and not one claim followed. Worth every fen.”
“After ten years stuck in a joint venture we could neither run nor leave, they got our partner out in seven months without a single court filing. We should have called them five years earlier.”

A TRO is a court order that freezes your Amazon seller funds and may suspend your selling privileges. It is typically filed by a brand owner or rights holder who alleges trademark or copyright infringement. The order is issued before you are notified, which means your funds can be frozen without warning.
You typically have 14 days from the date of service to respond. Missing this deadline can result in a default judgment of $50,000 to $2,000,000 per counterfeit work. Contact us immediately so we can file a timely response.
