Consulting and In-Court Representation
Winheller Attorneys at Law advise publishers of books, newspapers,
magazines, tabloids, comics, e-books and e-docs, art, photography,
games, maps, and music with respect to copyright, publishing,
trademark, labor, financial, and tax law issues in Germany and
internationally. We represent publishers of all sizes, authors,
translators, editors, and licensees of publishing rights.
We represent our clients before the civil, labor, and tax courts
as well as in publishing arbitration proceedings.
Drafting & Negotiating Contracts
We draft and negotiate contracts. Besides the "classic" publishing
and license agreements, new forms of contracts emerge and require
profound drafting and negotiating experience and knowledge of
the most recent case law, e.g., literary works which are published
in the new online and offline media, like CD-ROMs and the internet.
Winheller Attorneys at Law stand for the drafting and negotiating
of quality contracts which live up to international standards.
We draft and negotiate in particular:
- Author-Agent contracts
