MÜLLER PAPARIS
EXPERTISE · TECHNOLOGY, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY & MEDIA

Legally allocate creative work and make it commercially exploitable.

We advise authors, companies, agencies, producers and users on the creation, transfer, licensing and enforcement of rights in works and content.

How can we support you?

Content is created for a company

Authorship, the employment or mandate relationship and rights of use should be clearly regulated.

What we do for you

Clearly defined services.

Rights clearance

We review authorship, existing contracts and the actual chain of title.

Transfer of rights

We draft contracts for the creation, acquisition and use of works.

Licence agreements

We regulate media, territory, duration, exclusivity, adaptation and remuneration.

Content & platforms

We advise on digital content, social media, software and platform use.

Enforcement & defence

We act in cases of infringement, cease-and-desist letters, takedown, injunctive relief and remuneration.

USE REQUIRES PROVENANCE

Anyone wishing to exploit rights commercially must be able to trace their chain of title.

A paid mandate does not automatically mean that all rights have been transferred. We create clear allocation and prevent products, campaigns or transactions from depending on uncleared content.

03

We prepare contracts, clarify consents and act in cases of infringement.

Considered in context

Film, music and media law

IT and technology contracts

Software and digital products combine contract and copyright law.

Image and personality rights

An image may concern both copyright and personal rights.

Personally responsible

The right expertise. The right point of contact.
