What we advocate
Kitzbüheler Gams: Wir vertreten die Rechteinhaber der »Walde-Gams« in Lizenzierungs- und Verletzungsfällen. Die bekannte stilisierte Gams ist urheber- und markenrechtlich geschützt.
Designer Maske: Den Designer dieser Maske haben wir erfolgreich gegen Louis Vuitton vertreten. Das Unternehmen verwendete die Maske ohne Genehmigung in einer weltweiten Werbung.
Wall Street Bulle: Wir konnten für den Urheber des New Yorker Bullen einen hervorragenden Deal abschließen. Das Kunstwerk wurde von einem österreichischen Unternehmen ohne Genehmigung in dessen Logo integriert.
Nation Branding: Unsere Kanzlei verhandelte erfolgreich eine angemessene Vergütung für den Designer. Das ursprünglich nur für das Außenministerium gestaltete Logo wurde abgewandelt für alle 14 Bundesministerien verwendet, ohne dass sich die Republik die notwendigen Nutzungsrechte einräumen ließ.
Euro Banknoten: Wir kämpften vehement gegen die EZB für eine angemessene Urhebervergütung. Die auf allen Euro-Banknoten befindliche Europakarte stammt von einem Salzburger Kartographen, welcher dafür unverhältnismäßig niedrig entlohnt wurde.

Chamois of Kitzbuehel

Chamois of Kitzbuehel
For many years, we represented the rights holders of the “Walde-Chamois” in license and infringement matters.

The popular stylised chamois is protected by copyright and trademark law.

Designer Mask

This mask’s designer was successfully represented by our law firm against Louis Vuitton.

The company had used the mask without permission in worldwide advertisements.

WALLSTREET BULL

We were able to conclude an excellent agreement for the creator of the New York Bull.

The artwork was used by an Austrian company in their brand logo, without permission.

NATION BRANDING

Our law firm negotiated a fair compensation for this logo’s designer.

The logo, initially created for the foreign ministry, was used by all 14 Austrian ministries, although the Austrian Republic had not been granted the necessary rights of use.

EURO BANKNOTEs

We fought fiercely against the ECB for appropriate copyright remuneration.

The map of Europe on all euro banknotes is based on the work of a cartographer from Salzburg, who was paid very little for it.
