IP and Media Law

We advise our clients on all matters involving intellectual property rights as well as media law.
Intellectual property (trademark rights, promoter’s rights, copyrights, etc.) is often a major part of a company’s economic success. We help our clients to ensure that these economic assets are protected and exploited in the best possible manner.
Protecting our clients’ rights of personality is also one of our basic services. Any interference in these rights, for example by third parties making false factual allegations or due to any unlawful use of images, can have serious consequences for a person’s reputation and can lead to economic damage. We assist our clients in taking defensive action against any such interference and in enforcing claims for damages.
We also provide advice on all questions concerning competition law. Here we place utmost importance on protecting our clients against unfair competitive practices (such as misleading and comparative advertising, counterfeits, etc.).

 

Martens Rechtsanwälte particularly offers the following services in this regard:

  • Assistance with registering your rights (e.g. trademark rights)
  • The drafting of contracts (e.g. television contracts, advertising contracts, agency contracts and merchandising contracts)
  • Speedy judicial enforcement of claims for an injunction and claims for damages
