LSKS has achieved significant success representing media organizations and other content providers in intellectual property litigation, both as plaintiffs and defendants. Among other things, we:
* have handled precedent-setting litigation involving the application of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and the range of issues surrounding the protection of rights on the Internet,
* have successfully defended a significant jury trial involving infringement claims against a major media organization,
* assist clients in efforts to halt the infringement or dilution of their copyrighted works and trademarks, and
* routinely defend clients’ rights to make legitimate fair uses of intellectual property that may belong to others or exist in the public domain.
In addition to litigation, our IP work involves counseling clients concerning the licensing and use of copyrighted works and trademarks, as well as advising them on the appropriate steps to secure proper title to, safeguard, and license to others their own intellectual property. For example, LSKS attorneys regularly counsel periodical publishers concerning their engagements with freelancers, and they have assisted in the development of protocols designed to maximize editorial flexibility while minimizing legal risk with respect to such contracts.
LSKS also has represented consumer-product companies in connection with trademark licenses and other IP transactions.
