Exciting new series on “Voice, Body and Movement for Lawyers – How to connect with the jury and find Justice Through Dramatic Technique!”
Click here to find out moreAre you a photographer who enforces your copyrights? Do you serve as counsel to photographers in copyright infringement matters? During the past few years, copyright holders seeking to hold accountable those who infringe on their work have been met with a barrage of “trolling” accusations from opposing parties. An overwhelming percentage of trolling accusations are leveled at photographers and their attorneys, at least in part because infringement of photographs is now widespread and the rules of online “sharing” remain unclear to both individuals and business entities.
Largely based on the actions of a few photographers and attorneys, the “trolling” refrain is now mainstream and has made its way into many court filings and opinions. Where is the line separating copyright trolls from copyright holders who simply desire to be properly compensated for the infringement of their protected intellectual property?
This webinar will address the topic of copyright trolls in copyright infringement matters, from pre-litigation negotiations through the conclusion of trial. The discussion will include how copyright holders and their counsel can proactively anticipate and plan for accusations of trolling by the opposing party, as well summarize current case law on the subject matter.
