Description

Taking you through the legislation and case law, this book explains the different protection mechanisms available under design and copyright law and how to enforce your rights when they are infringed.

Includes new coverage of:

- Chapter on Evidence – how one puts the case forward, representation of designs is important
- Arbitration/dispute resolution in chapter on Design Infringement
- Introduction of case summaries
- Brexit, eg what effect will European law/ECJ have after Brexit; existing EU Unregistered Design Right – no parallel under UK law so will this remain after Brexit or not
- Coverage of the changes brought about by Intellectual Property Act 2014 in relation to design law
- Completed example forms with practical guidance and tips on how to complete them
- Expanded coverage of specific industries, eg fashion (a big increase in case law), furniture, motor industry, toys, tech (computer games, etc), and consumer products
