Law firms ranked by client reviews
Authorship in copyright law governs who created a protected work and when those rights attach, typically under the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. A solicitor practising in this area helps clients exploit or defend those rights, drafting or negotiating assignments and licences, advising on moral rights and attribution, and responding to alleged infringements. They also advise on who may sue, how to recover or license rights, and what steps to take if someone copies or uses a work without permission.
Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor
A solicitor provides formal assurance and accountability when handling rights to written, artistic or digital works, including drafting licences, negotiating assignments, and advising on enforcement or defence strategies. They navigate evidence of authorship, quantify or defend ownership, and handle disputes through negotiation or litigation while ensuring regulatory standards and professional liability protections apply.
