Copyright
We advise on all aspects of copyright from rights in creative works to ownership of complex software systems. Our team of copyright experts advise on both the exploitation of those rights and their enforcement.
Clients include media companies, broadcasters, software developers and owners, print and digital publishers and film productions. We also act for photographers, game developers, app developers, designers, architects, advertising agencies and writers.
Our copyright team has a special focus on the use and exploitation of copyright online, specifically on the exploitation and monetisation of digital content. We regularly advise clients on how to enforce copyright online and how to control unauthorised distribution, as well as disputes over software ownership.
