Typical situations

  • You are launching a collection, a design or a work and want your rights secured before showing it
  • You need to prove authorship against a partner or an infringer
  • A brand or a producer asks you to “assign all rights” and you hesitate
  • You create with AI tools and wonder what you actually own

Proof of authorship, before anything else

Copyright arises without formalities — the difficulty is proving who created what, and when. Probative deposits, sealed envelopes, timestamping, structured archives: the firm puts in place evidence that will hold when it matters.

Registered designs, where strategy requires

For products, patterns and collections, registered designs add a title to copyright. The firm defines what to file, where and when, aligned with your markets and your budget.

Moral rights and attribution

Attribution, integrity of the work, conditions of display or alteration: the firm enforces the rights that survive any assignment under French law — a decisive advantage in negotiation.

Creating with AI

Works made with generative tools raise questions of ownership and protectability. The firm audits your workflow and secures what can be secured — by contract, by evidence, by design.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to register to own copyright?
No — under French law, copyright arises upon creation. Registration is nevertheless decisive as evidence: a probative deposit dates your work and identifies its author, which is what disputes turn on.
Can I protect an idea or a concept?
Ideas as such are free. What is protected is their expression — a text, a design, a bible, a structured format. The firm helps you formalize the expression, and locks the rest through confidentiality agreements.
What should I check before assigning “all rights”?
French law requires assignments to specify each right, medium, territory and duration. A blanket assignment is often ineffective — and always negotiable. Have it reviewed before signing, not after.
