Legal advice

As a member of the Association of Visual Artists, you have the opportunity to get free advice and guidance from the association's lawyer

Guidance is provided on, among other things:

  • Contracts and agreements
  • Salary and prices
  • Copyright
  • VAT and tax

Most inquiries can be handled by telephone or by mail. e-mail, but the secretariat also conducts a number of cases on behalf of the members. Occasionally, unfortunately, we are forced to go to court to get the cases resolved, but we always assess each individual case concretely and decide in each individual case whether BKF should handle the case - and if so, to what extent BKF can and will cover the costs.

BKF's lawyer Klaus Pedersen can be contacted Monday to Thursday from 10-15.

Personal contact: By prior agreement
Telephone inquiry: 3312 8174 or 3312 8170
Email: kp@bkf.dk
