𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐚? 🤔 The recurring drama between fashion designers and celebrities often centers on disputes over credit attribution versus financial compensation and the ownership of designs. As a lawyer, I consistently emphasize the importance of contracts in advising on these relationships. Contracts serve as a means to anticipate and safeguard against future disputes. Understanding that many issues can be mitigated through clear contractual agreements is crucial. The case of Nana Akua Addo and Ezinneolivia Styling provides compelling evidence of this. It sheds light on the intricacies of collaborative projects within the industry and underscores the significance of having well-defined contracts. When drafting such contracts, it's essential to address key issues such as: ➡️𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 ➡️𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 ➡️𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐲/𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐬/𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 ➡️𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐬 ➡️𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐞𝐭𝐜 Contracts containing these terms can serve as valuable tools for both designers and celebrities, helping to protect their rights and interests in creative collaborations. I hope this helps Have a great week! #fashionlaw #fashionlawyer #lawyer

With an increase in number of businesses selling similar goods and services coming up, how do you ensure that your 𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞, 𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧, 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧 𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 isn't copied by others? You 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤 it. Trademarking protects the brand of your business; and ensures that your brand identity becomes your legally protected asset. #MMTKLaw #nairobilawyer #lawfirm #kenyanlawyers #LegalServices #askwakili #trademark
