Media law revolves around the delicate balance between two fundamental rights: freedom of expression on the one hand, and the right to privacy and a good name on the other.
The world of film, television, news gathering, online media and advertising often revolves around the delicate balance between fundamental fundamental rights: freedom of expression, freedom of enterprise and freedom of news gathering on the one hand versus the right to privacy and a good name on the other. At Guldemond Lawyers, we are familiar with both sides of this coin.
Our media law practice has two main pillars. On the one hand, we advise media companies, producers, journalists and content creators on their publications and productions. We think along with them about the legal aspects of their work and help them tell their story without running unnecessary risks. This often starts early in the process, for example when reviewing scripts or advising on the proper application of adversarial proceedings.
On the other hand, we regularly assist individuals and organisations that have received unwanted publicity or, for example, individuals whose portrait has been used without permission. In these cases, swift action is often crucial. We can intervene immediately when publications are threatened, litigate for the removal of unlawful content and ensure rectification where necessary.
Our experience spans the entire media landscape. We work for traditional publishers and broadcasters, as well as online platforms and social media influencers. In addition, we have specific expertise in sectors where media coverage plays a major role, such as the entertainment industry, business and politics.
In the dynamic world of media and entertainment, advertising law plays an essential role. Advertisements must comply with strict legal rules to prevent deception and protect consumers. At Guldemond Advocaten, we advise companies and marketers on what is and what is not allowed when advertising.
We guide our clients in developing advertising campaigns that are not only creative and effective, but also comply with the relevant regulations. Whether reviewing scripts, assessing legal risks, or intervening in complaints or proceedings, we are ready to help.
