In many cases innovations are based on the individual achievement of your employees. The law relating to inventions from employees regulates inter alia the transfer of rights to such an invention to the employer with respective remuneration issues. By means of the remuneration a fair balance between the interests of the employer (employer is entitled to the outcome of the work) and the interests of the employee-inventor (the right to the invention originates from the employee) is struck, so that you, as employer, can use the inventive achievement. In this connection we advise our clients comprehensively with respect to all issues concerning the law relating to inventions from employees:<\/p>\n

    Copyright law protects literary, scientific and artistic works, which are based on personal intellectual creativity. This includes, books, drawings, pictures, pieces of music, films, data processing programs. Company logos, advertisement texts or pictures which companies use for their own purposes can also be such works. In contrary to intellectual property protection, copyright protection results automatically from the creative work, this means that with the creation of the work the maker of an artistic work is regarded as copyright owner, without the filing at an office. The copyright protection for works lapses 70 years after the death of a copyright owner. The copyright owner has the right to injunction, damages, destruction or delivery of the infringing works or equipment used for producing the same from a third party infringing its works, information concerning distribution channels, publication of court decisions, confiscation of the works at customs and prosecution of the infringer.

      New competition: social media \u2013what is permitted?
      \nThe Unfair Competition Act (AAUC) is aimed at protecting competitors and consumers as well as other market participants against unfair business practices and at the same time protects the interest of the general public in an undistorted competition. AAUC questions and disputes many times result in connection with trademark issues. This concerns search engines and social media as new marketing and sales channels. Thereby warnings and preliminary injunctions on short notice are routine, whereby a quick taking over of the mandate as well as a swift handling of the case is important.
      \nIn order to offer an optimal support our Attorneys have many years of experience in trademark law as well as competition law and we can, if necessary, offer support on short notice. Our services include:<\/p>\n
