Copyright

Evolving copyright laws give rise to legal challenges that can carry significant commercial implications. The constant stream of copyright cases highlights the struggle for legislation to keep up with the pace of technological advances — as well as the tension between rights holders and industry players.

We help protect and enforce the copyrights of world-famous record labels, film and TV studios and maintain strong relationship with major international film, media and music associations.
