Copyright and publishing law
The protection of creative individuals and their works, as well as their exploitation.
The protection of creative individuals and their works, as well as their exploitation, has always been an essential part of the advice provided by our lawyers. This was true both at Fritz & Mark Legal and at the predecessor firms of our legal team.
We advise our clients in all areas of copyright law and represent their interests both in and out of court. We consider our copyright expertise to be part of our comprehensive competence in the field of intellectual property (IP). Publishing law, in particular, is a key focus of our work. For many years, we have been the go-to contact for both publishers and creators in this area.
In addition to enforcing copyrights, contract drafting, in particular the drafting of exploitation and licensing agreements, is a key focus of our work.
