Join us for an expert insight into the legal issues surrounding the
work of conservators. Leading intellectual property lawyer Dennis
Lee, a partner with Silverman Sherliker LLP Solicitors, will draw on
his experience of representing businesses throughout the art world,
including artists, photographers and galleries. He will address
issues including copyright infringement, royalty negotiations, terms
and conditions, and disputes. Dennis's talk will be followed by an
open Question and Answer session, and he will be available for
informal chats later in the evening.

Dennis heads the Intellectual Property Team at Silverman Sherliker,
advising on all aspects of IP creation, protection and exploitation.
He acts for an extremely broad spectrum of clients in the creative
and entertainment industries, designers, clothing manufacturers,
architects, technology companies, IT, fashion labels and charities,
and many entrepreneurs, based in the UK and internationally. Dennis
has been listed as a 'leader in the field' of IP law in the 2010,
2011 and 2012 editions of Chambers UK, the leading independent
directory of the legal profession.

Before joining Silverman Sherliker, Dennis has worked across a wide
range of legal specialisms, including commercial, company corporate,
and has acquired in-depth experience in intellectual property law,
particularly in the media and entertainment sectors where he
established a notable reputation with his clients including a Legal
500 entry. He has advised producers, directors, broadcasters and
trade associations on numerous issues in the field of film and
television production. Throughout his career Dennis's overriding
passion and emphasis has remained on intellectual property law,
grounded on his background in the arts and the creative industries.

Dennis has acted as an expert adviser to the Intellectual Property
Division of the Ministry of Economic Affairs of Bhutan in developing
intellectual property law procedures on a national and
supra-national level. He regularly delivers lectures to audiences of
students, creatives and new entrepreneurs at various colleges,
universities and governmental institutions.
