Your experts
Dealing with artists’ estates has always been an important part of the work that we do.
We can help artists decide how best to safeguard and pass on their artistic legacies, to manage taxation and to provide for heirs. We understand the unique issues that arise when dealing with estates and can help navigate what can be a daunting terrain.
We advise on a variety of issues that might affect artists, including copyright and artist’s resale rights. We also help to structure and document the sale and commissioning of artworks, help to protect artists’ rights and can advise on the lending or consignment of works to private galleries and public exhibitions.
As well as advising ‘traditional’ artists, we are at the forefront of the law in relation to street artists and the ground breaking legal issues that their art creates.
