In the past, only the press, radio and authors of books were really affected by media law. Internet 2.0 has fundamentally changed this. Today, almost everyone publishes on social media or even on their own sites - whether for free or for a fee. From this point of view, all publicists are now covered by media law, even if most of them will practically never be affected by it. Commercial bloggers, influencers and providers, on the other hand, often generate the income for their livelihood in this way and must therefore be sure that this remains the case. As soon as these publishing activities are to serve as an integral part or even the basis of your own income, you should also urgently consider a media lawyer. The media lawyer proactively protects you from potential problems in the context of your own work, but can also provide effective help if your own work results are used illegally by third parties. Equally important for commercial activities in the media are the imprint obligation and general media expertise. Here too, a lawyer specialising in media law can provide security and clarity.

Media law deals with the requirements and regulations of private and public communication - in legal terms, it therefore encompasses areas of civil law, criminal law and public law. In practice, a distinction is usually made in media law between the content-specific areas (e.g. copyright law) and the transmission-specific aspects - for example, the emergence of new means of communication such as the Internet at the time.
Traditionally, media lawyers have primarily dealt with the media of film, television, radio and the press. Nowadays, of course, the Internet and multimedia in general are the areas of this field of law most frequently concerned in practice.
This close connection between media law and internet law is of course no coincidence, as content and technology always influence each other in today's world. With technological progress, there are always new possibilities for the distribution of content and thus also the associated legal issues. Enforcing the author's rights has therefore become a very complex process that goes far beyond mere contracts.
Reputation management with legal support can also be seen as an important part of media law today, as a large part of brand and image building has shifted to the Internet. As a law firm, we can help you protect your good reputation both online and offline.

Media law encompasses many different areas. Basically, the media law lawyer (media lawyer) is concerned on the one hand with the defence against unjustified claims in the context of media law or, on the other hand, with the enforcement of the client's interests in the context of media work. Here again, a distinction must be made between general legal requirements (competition law, protection of minors, ...) and personal rights (copyright, ...). Typical areas of responsibility for the media lawyer (media law lawyer) include
