Legal services in the field of copyright

Contents:

Copyright is a legal system that recognizes and protects the rights of authors to their intellectual property. It provides authors with the exclusive right to control the use and distribution of their creative works. Within the framework of copyright, various categories of intellectual property are included – literary, artistic, musical, dramatic and cinematographic works, as well as software, inventions, business models, designs and more.

In case of copyright infringement, it is necessary to seek the help of qualified lawyers. VALEN specialists protect the interests of authors and owners of intellectual property rights. We carry out comprehensive work, which includes an analysis of the actual circumstances of the violation, the study of legal aspects, the development of a protection strategy and other work necessary to protect the rights of authors.

Legal services in the field of copyright

Copyright gives authors the opportunity to control the use of their works, as well as to receive income from their use. It ensures their rights to create copies, perform, perform, publicly display, lease, translate, adapt and other essential aspects of the use of their work.

A copyright lawyer provides the following services to authors:

• Detailed investigation and clarification of the circumstances of copyright infringement. We examine all available evidence, including contracts, witness statements, or digital footprints. Such an analysis allows you to assess the scale of the violation and create an accurate picture of the violations.
• Legal expertise to determine the legality of the actions of a third party and the existence of an actual violation of the law. We will examine the copyright documents and license agreements, compare the violated material with the original and establish the existence and extent of the violation of legal protection.
• Development of a strategy to protect the interests of the client. We will use various methods, including drafting claims and statements of claim. Copyright lawyers will also negotiate with the infringer or his representatives and take over the conduct of legal proceedings if necessary. We prepare arguments based on the norms of the law and judicial practice. This helps to prove copyright infringement.
