Instagram Account Banned by Meta for IP Infringement? We Can Help.
If your Instagram account has been suddenly deactivated or banned by Meta due to an alleged intellectual property (IP) infringement, you’re not alone. Business owners, content creators, and influencers around the world are waking up to find their accounts suspended—often without any clear explanation and with no real avenue for support.
At Jahanshahi Law Firm, we understand how frustrating and damaging this can be, especially when your account is tied to your brand, business, or income. We’ve helped clients successfully recover Instagram accounts that were wrongfully disabled due to alleged IP violations—even when Meta ignored repeated support requests.
Why Was Your Account Banned?
Meta, the parent company of Instagram, is rumoured to rely on AI-driven systems and automated IP scanners. These tools are designed to protect intellectual property but may result in overreaching enforcement—sometimes flagging legitimate businesses and individuals who have done nothing wrong.
In some cases, the platform disables accounts without giving specifics, and the appeals process can feel like a black hole. Even after submitting supporting documents and following all prescribed steps, many users receive no response at all.
Why the Appeal Process Often Fails
One of the most common frustrations we hear from clients is the complete lack of response from Meta after filing appeals through the standard support channels. Users often submit multiple requests, upload documents, and follow every instruction—only to be met with automated replies or no reply at all. Many individuals and businesses struggle for months with no progress.
We have found that Meta tends to respond when communication is made through legal channels. Many of our clients have only been successful in recovering their accounts after engaging our firm to intervene on their behalf. Our legal correspondence brings clarity, legitimacy, and urgency to the matter, prompting action where standard appeals have failed.
