Our Offices
A digital asset, in essence, is anything that exists in a binary format and comes with the right to use and include but are not exclusive to: digital documents, audible content, motion picture, and other relevant digital data that are currently in circulation or are, or will be stored on digital appliances, such as: personal computers, laptops, portable media players, tablets, storage devices, telecommunication devices, and any and all apparatuses which are, or will be in existence once technology progresses to accommodate for the conception of new modalities which would be able to carry digital assets; notwithstanding the proprietorship of the physical device onto which the digital asset is located.
In the modern legal wealth and estate planning therefore digital assets are often part of the estate and set new issue for legal and tax compliance. Within our firm, we set up a specific Focus Team to follow this interesting subject which is so closed to the trust and estate planning, both domestically or internationally.
From this concept follows the world of digital inheritance, digital media and ultimately the human rights which are involved with the use (and misuse) of new technologies. We work with firms highly specialised and focused on medial, digital and intangibles, including the issue of reputation, privacy (including post-mortem privacy).
