Visual Art, Fashion and Photography

Creative Lawyers help artists and creators with protecting and commercialising their work, including assisting with licensing, infringement, protection, ownership, acquisition, sale, commissioning and ‘fair use’ matters.  Our experience in the industry means we can also assist clients who wish to acquire, commission, licence or otherwise use artwork, photographs and other visual materials.
