My field of expertise ranges from criminal law to business law, including the protection of moral rights in intellectual property. This diversity allows me to support both individuals and professionals, with the same commitment to rigor and efficiency.
MORAL RIGHTS
Moral rights aim to protect the author’s “personality” through his work and to respect it. Moral rights include several rights:
The right of
disclosure
It gives the author the discretion to decide when and how to communicate his work to the public.
The right of
paternity
The author has the right to claim authorship of his work. This is expressed by the appearance of the author’s name when the work is used.
The right to respect for
the integrity of the work
Every author has the right to have his work not subject to any infringement, modification or alteration.
The right of withdrawal
and repentance
The author may withdraw his already disclosed work from the market sphere in return for financial compensation.
The right to
oppose
to any damage prejudicial to honor and reputation.
Moral rights are attached to the person of the author
It is inalienable, but transmissible upon death to heirs. It is perpetual and imprescriptible.

The author's property rights
we mainly distinguish:
The right of
reproduction
This right includes the possibility for the author to authorize the copying of all or part of his work and to set the terms of the latter.
The right of
representation
This right allows the author to authorize the public performance or performance of their work. This public nature includes, in particular, the right of public presentation for visual artists and photographers.
These rights may be assigned. These rights, which are part of the author’s assets, allow the author to derive economic benefit from their work.
The French Intellectual Property Code (CPI) defines copyright.
Civil
Liability
Civil liability corresponds to the obligation imposed on everyone to repair damage caused to others.
