Intellectual property, media and information technology

You are confronted with great challenges.

The area of "Intellectual Property, Media and Information Technology" is characterised by a rapidly and continuously developing technology. Accordingly, the markets in which our clients operate in this field are changing fast.

The resulting challenges not only place new demands on business IT in terms of speed and reliability, they also radically change the role of IT in companies and thus its significance for overall business success. Existing business processes are increasingly being automated and digitalized and at the same time the constant new technical requirements and market conditions lead to high competitive pressure. Companies must therefore take innovative steps or even reinvent themselves in order to meet the changing needs of their customers. As a result, research and development has become extremely important for the use of new products in many industries, so the value of a company increasingly depends on its intellectual property. Effective innovative IT solutions and the protection of the company's own IP assets are therefore of the highest priority.

With technological progress and changing market conditions, the legal situation is also constantly changing. Companies have to know and consider a multitude of legal requirements, e.g. in the areas of data protection and compliance.

We are there for you!

In this dynamic environment, the consultants in our practice group "Intellectual Property, Media and Information Technology" will support you with their comprehensive expertise and many years of experience as strong strategic partners in the entire range of relevant legal fields. Within the framework of our creative and pragmatic legal approach and advice, we always have your entrepreneurial success as our goal.

In today's global business environment, our IT legal expertise is of utmost importance. Our activities cover all areas, such as computer law, IT law, e-commerce, telecommunications law and, in particular, data protection law applicable across the board.

In our practice group, we also advise on issues of unfair competition, advertising law, distribution law and all types of intellectual property rights, in particular copyright law, trademark law, utility model law and design protection, as well as the protection of trade secrets. We also represent, for example, companies from the health industry with regard to questions of pharmaceutical law and the labelling of medical products.

Our activities in the field of media law include advising press agencies and publishing houses on press and broadcasting law, in particular on publication and libel laws. In addition, we also advise all other branches with connection to media law.

We represent and assist our clients out of court in extensive projects in the areas of outsourcing or licensing, in the establishment of compliance structures within the company, in transactions and restructurings, in public procurement and other complex contract negotiations and in all other legal questions and problems that our clients face in their day-to-day business. In addition, we also represent our clients in urgent and main proceedings before all German courts, the European Court of Justice and international arbitration tribunals.

The members of our practice group are well known for their publications and regularly give lectures and in-house trainings on all topics related to intellectual property, media and information technology.
