Copyright, design and databases

We have extensive experience of Intellectual Property matters from various fields of businesses, including IP intensive businesses such as design and fashion, life science, film and TV production. Our copyright practice covers the magnitude of works of art that can be protected such as music, literature and text, film and TV production, art and design. 

Design protection also provides a valuable form of protection for the appearance of products. In many situations, the design of a product can be protected by registered or unregistered design as well as a work of applied art under copyright legislation. We represent individual designers as well as fashion and design companies.

We handle all kind of infringement matters and all types of agreements relating to copyright and design, including sending of cease-and-desist letters, litigation, drafting and negotiation of licenses, assignment, production and publishing agreements.

We also provide advice regarding legal protection of databases. Databases have, due to the massive digital development, become a very valuable asset in many companies and the database rules makes it possible to prevent unauthorised use of databases and infringement of database rights.
