Protection of Copyrights

Creative work requires tremendous effort and perseverance from the author.

Authors not only deserve respect for their creative labor but also remuneration for the use of their creations and protection against infringements.

However, authors often lack awareness of the full extent of their rights and may succumb to pressure from employers or other parties engaging in unauthorized use of their works, without knowing how to protect themselves.

Designers, programmers, artists, writers, musicians, film and stage directors, cinematographers, screenwriters, architects, inventors, and all those who have chosen creative professions can rely on the qualified legal assistance of Yurlov & Partners Law Office.
