Literary and artistic property - Neighbouring rights

Your intellectual property lawyer’s firm in Paris assists you with:

Preserving intellectual assets is at the core of the firm’s activities.

Protecting such assets requires:

  • downstream protection, by deploying a legal arsenal against counterfeiting, unfair competition, and commercial free-riding (counterfeit seizures, urgent proceedings, judicial actions).

Dynamic in nature, intellectual assets are also subject to agreements that can be drafted, reviewed, and negotiated by the firm (license agreements, assignment agreements, etc.).
