Managing your copyright can be complicated, and it is important that you seek specialised advice. Our team of copyright experts have extensive experience protecting the rights of creators, including licensing and royalty agreements, anti-counterfeiting, and enforcement.

Copyright exists automatically on the creation of certain original works. It applies to musical, dramatic, artistic or literary works (including models, drawings, sculptures, software, books, advertising copy). It protects the way in which an idea is expressed but not the idea itself. If you’re in the content business (producing music, books, film, software and the like) copyright comes into its own.

Less well known is that copyright can also apply to the shape and configuration of a product or its packaging or promotional materials. As a consequence, there is likely to be copyright in most replicable products you create.

We can assist you with protecting your original works of authorship including literary, dramatic, musical, artistic works, novels, movies, songs, computer software, and architecture.
