Intellectual Property Law and the Cultural Sector

Our intellectual property team advises clients in the creative industries, including theatre producers, venue owners and operators, dance companies and artists.

We also deal with legal issues for leisure, entertainment and media clients, including TV and film producers, sports clients and event managers.

We provide advice to curators, museums, galleries, investors as well as clients in the hi-tech and design sectors.

We can help with the protection and exploitation of your work to help secure the best commercial value. Our lawyers are actively involved in the sector and have first-hand experience of the day to day problems faced by creative companies, charities and not for profit organisations. We speak at industry conferences, university seminars and client training events.

We work closely with our colleagues to help with employment issues, property matters, funding, licensing, contracts, web terms, and the transfer of business activities to provide a comprehensive bespoke service to our clients.
