Copyright and media law

In the age of digitalization, social media, online marketing, e-commerce, embedded content, framing, cloud computing and Industry 4.0 are just some of the keywords associated with the protection of creative work. By failing to safeguard their copyrights and other legal rights, many companies lose a key asset in their value-added chain.

The digital revolution involves massive changes and radiates into almost every corporate process. Do you want to take on the entrepreneurial challenge of bringing your business activities, and perhaps even your business model, into line with the new technical possibilities? We’ll be pleased to assist you and take care of the legal implementation, so that you can continue in future to seize your business opportunities while keeping abreast of the times.

The intricacies of copyright are highly complex, especially in view of the many different sectors it can affect. Alongside general personal rights, copyright can interface, for example, with publishing, press, music, photographic, film, television and event rights as well as with Internet, teleservices and telecommunications rights.

We’ll help you to clear your rights and establish effective rights management for optimized exploitation of your rights. We’ll assist your company in the enforcement of copyrights, the use of free licenses and image rights, the drafting of licensing agreements and other complex contractual arrangements, e.g. for authors, photographers and the music and film industry.

Legally compliant media and press reporting as well as corporate communications are of key importance to companies. Together with you, we’ll develop a legally optimized advertising presence through to ideally configured (media-specific) title, trademark and design protection. In case of disputes, we’ll also conduct litigation and negotiations on your behalf.

Take advantage of our know-how and experience. We look forward to hearing from you.
