Our team assists individuals and businesses in identifying and enforcing their copyright to ensure your rights are protected under Australian law.
Infringement occurs when copyright material, or a ‘substantial part’ of it, is used without permission in a way exclusively reserved to the copyright owner. For example, a copyright owner has sole rights under the Copyright Act to reproduce copyright material, perform or screen it in public, and to communicate it to the public.
When infringement occurs, action must be taken within 6 years of the infringement date. Sanicki Lawyers can act quickly to assist you if your copyright’s been infringed. We handle cease-and-desist letters, take-down notices, negotiation for fair compensation, and, when necessary, litigation to stop unauthorised use and recover damages. Whether your work has been used without permission online, in advertising, or by competitors, we’ll develop a strategic approach to help you enforce your rights as a copyright owner.
We also assist clients in proactively managing copyright through licensing agreements and advising on compliance with Australian and international copyright laws.
At Sanicki Lawyers, we understand the value of your intellectual property and are committed to enforcing and defending it. Contact us today to discuss how we can help you navigate copyright infringement issues and enforce your rights.
