Advertising
From traditional advertising to digital marketing, via influencers and social networks, we provide legal counsel and assist our clients in all their communications and promotional campaigns. Advertising law is a cross-disciplinary legal field at the crossroads of several areas: commercial law, competition law, consumer law and intellectual property law. Advertising law is constantly evolving and the line between what is allowed and what is prohibited is sometimes thin. How to reduce the risks? What are the best practices? How to defend yourself against unscrupulous competitors? The lawyers at Arénaire Avocats have developed a solid expertise in advertising law, both in legal counsel and in litigation.
