Copyright
Copyright protects original works including artistic works, design drawings, literary works, films, songs and computer programmes. The Copyright Act prohibits the unauthorised copying of any original work. Copyright protection exists automatically when an original work is created and so there is no copyright register in New Zealand.
The Copyright Act protects different original works in different ways. When you have a copyright issue it is important to get specialist advice on the best way to manage and enforce your copyright. Our copyright experts have experience on a broad range of copyright issues and can advise you whatever the nature of your copyright inquiry.
