Film – Copyright claim
Our insured, a production company, was served with a lawsuit alleging they copyrighted the claimant’s trademarked slogan. The slogan has a mainstream recognition, and our insured used it in their fictional production. Given there was a potential for protracted litigation, we negotiated a fair settlement. This involved making changes to the script and advertising material. Our swift action ensured all deadlines were met and the premiere was able to proceed as planned.
