Copyright Lawyers Melbourne

From the moment you create an original work in certain forms, you have automatic ownership rights that are enforceable by Australian law. Copyright is used to protect a range of different works including original art, music, visual images and literary works. Copyright provides the owner of a work with exclusive rights to do certain acts with that work; e.g. reproduce, publish, broadcast, sell, licence and adapt the work. Anyone else who wishes to use the work must have the owner’s permission.

Our copyright lawyers are experts when it comes to recognising ownership rights and advising clients on their protection options. We act for a diverse range of creators and are highly experienced in advising on how to manage their copyrighted works. We ensure our clients are made fully aware of their rights and options when it comes to negotiating contracts involving copyright works and the transfer of ownership and licensing of rights and allow them to make informed decisions about the value of what they have created. Our copyright lawyers understand the significant time, effort and skill required to create an original work and are extremely committed to ensuring our client’s assets are adequately protected.
