Under the Lanham Act, individuals or entities harmed by false or misleading advertising can sue the advertiser for damages. This includes both direct competitors and consumers who have been misled by the advertising. The Clayton Act complements this by addressing anticompetitive practices, but it is the Lanham Act that specifically provides the mechanism for suing over false advertising.
