WeSaveYourCopyrights Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH from Frankfurt am Main is currently issuing a warning letter on behalf of the songwriter Mary Applegate for the musical work \"Jennifer Rush - The Power of Love\".<\/p>\n
In the context of these warnings, WeSaveYourCopyrights Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH demands on the one hand the submission of a cease-and-desist declaration subject to penalty as well as the reimbursement of the costs incurred by the warning.<\/p>\n
The majority of file-sharing warnings have the following content: The law firm issuing the warning offers an out-of-court settlement in such a way that the warned party submits a cease-and-desist declaration with a penalty clause and pays a settlement amount. In order to increase the pressure on the warned party, particularly short deadlines are set.<\/p>\n
However, most cease-and-desist declarations inadmissibly refer to the entire repertoire of the artist or songwriter and the amount of the settlement offer is usually set far too high.<\/p>\n
Under no circumstances should such a cease-and-desist declaration be signed without verification and the settlement amount paid immediately.<\/p>\n
In most cases, it is therefore worth commissioning a lawyer with the defence against the warning letter.<\/p>\n
