What Is Copyright Infringement?
Copyright protects original creative works from unauthorised copying and use.
Protected material can include photographs, written content, artwork, music, videos, software, website content, and other original works.
Businesses can also discover competitors using their photographs, website content, marketing materials, or other intellectual property.
When this happens, obtaining reliable evidence can become an important part of deciding what action to take.

Private Detective Birmingham provides discreet investigations into suspected copyright infringement.
Our investigators can then identify relevant evidence and document their findings.
Where appropriate and lawful, an investigation may include online research, open-source intelligence, company research, and physical enquiries.
The objective is to establish clear facts rather than make assumptions.
Gathering Evidence to a Court Standard
Evidence can become particularly important when a copyright dispute may result in legal proceedings.
Our investigators work carefully to obtain and document Evidence to a Court Standard.
We can also document relevant businesses, individuals, websites, advertisements, products, and other available information.
Identifying the Person Behind Copyright Infringement
Knowing that your work has been copied does not always reveal who is responsible.
Websites and online accounts can sometimes conceal the identity of the people operating them.
A copyright infringement investigation may help establish connections between websites, businesses, individuals, addresses, and trading activities.
Our investigators use lawful research techniques to develop an evidence-based picture of the circumstances.
Findings depend on the information available in each individual case.
Online Copyright Infringement Investigations
The internet has made copying and distributing protected material extremely easy.
Our investigators can research suspected online infringement and preserve relevant information discovered during the investigation.
This can provide a documented record before online material changes or disappears.
Business and Competitor Investigations
Copyright infringement can sometimes form part of a wider commercial dispute.
A competitor may copy photographs, product descriptions, marketing materials, or original website content.
We can investigate the individuals and businesses involved and identify relevant connections.
Our team can also examine publicly available corporate and online information.
The resulting evidence may help solicitors and clients determine their next course of action.
