Posted 2 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

We are seeking an experienced U.S.-licensed copyright/IP attorney to advise a successful fine artist regarding potential ongoing infringement of his artwork by another working artist. There appears to be a pattern involving multiple works, along with instances of market confusion where third parties have mistaken the other artist's work for our artist's. We already have general business counsel and have been advised to engage an attorney who specializes specifically in copyright and intellectual property. What We're Looking For Ideally, you have experience with: Copyright infringement involving visual art, design, photography, fashion, or other creative works Substantial-similarity analysis Cease-and-desist letters and pre-litigation enforcement Unfair competition / consumer-confusion issues Copyright litigation or dispute resolution Our initial goal is not to jump directly into litigation. We would first like an experienced attorney to review the evidence, assess the strength of potential claims, and recommend the most effective enforcement strategy. We have organized documentation available for review, including side-by-side examples, timelines, communications, and evidence of market confusion. To Apply Please briefly answer: Where are you licensed to practice, and what is your experience with copyright infringement involving visual or creative works? Have you handled copyright disputes or cease-and-desist matters for artists, designers, photographers, or other creators? Please briefly describe your relevant experience.
