Copyrights

Developments in the online arena in the past decade have transformed the significance of copyright ownership, use, protection and enforcement. Our team works with clients in the technology, media, telecommunications, education, research, entertainment, and fitness industries, often on matters that cross international borders.

We assist our clients to protect their copyright material in Hong Kong and China and advise on all aspects of copyright subsistence and protection. We represent clients in litigation and enforcement actions concerning copyright infringements, with a keen understanding of our clients’ commercial objectives and business priorities. We provide strategic commercial advice on steps to avoid infringement issues arising for clients such as online service providers, advertisers, design firms, research organizations, and marketing professionals.

We assist clients in the Copyright Tribunal in relation to their use of copyright material and negotiate with collecting societies including in relation to the exploitation of copyright via retail operations.

The diversity of our practice enables us to embrace every challenge and apply commercial know-how to achieve the best results for our clients. Our lawyers also lobby the Government on the protection of copyright, and consult with the Government on changes to copyright law, including through our involvement with influential industry representative bodies.
