How IP SERVICE INTERNATIONAL Protected a Freelance Designer against Infringement of their creative rights

A freelance designer became involved in a copyright dispute after being invited to submit original artworks as part of a recruitment process. Although not hired, the company later released products incorporating designs strikingly similar to those submitted by our client.

Our Copyright Experts established that the company had direct access to the original works and that their reproduction without licence infringed our client’s copyright under the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth). Thanks to our Copyright lawyers, the matter was successfully resolved through a negotiated licence and a Deed of Settlement, including license royalties and compensation for legal costs in favour of our client.
