Law Office Milić
PROVISION OF SPECIALIZED LEGAL SERVICES IN THE FIELD OF:
Intellectual property law/ Copyright, Media, IT and Internet law, Personal data protection, E-commerce etc.
Law Office Milić, was founded in 2008, by Lawyer Dragan Milić . In addition to lawyers, the law office also consists of associates, lawyers and law graduates who, in addition to the legal areas that the office and its founder primarily deal with, also have specializations in the field of commercial law, labor law, real estate transactions and status. All members of our team are fluent in English.
Since its inception, the office has focused on branches of law such as intellectual property and media law, with an emphasis on the online environment, i.e. the exercise and protection of rights on the Internet. With the expansion of the Internet in the last decade, the already acquired knowledge and experience have helped the law firm to position itself as a competent provider of legal services related to the legal aspects of the Internet, both individuals and legal entities, and lawyer Dragan Milic has gained the status of Internet law pioneer in Serbia.
As other branches of law increasingly took over their internet spheres, the affairs of the office became more general, encompassing a complete customer service on or in connection with the Internet. In this regard, e-commerce as the dominant form of business today required adequately legal support, which the law firm Milić could immediately provide to its clients, especially regarding the development of terms of use, privacy policy, regulations on returns and reclamation, rules on withdrawal and accompanying forms who is necessary for the exercise of consumer rights and records.
The dominance of the Internet has also contributed to the actualization of the issue of personal data protection of its users, so after Directive 95/46 EC, which was accompanied by our Law on Personal Data Protection from 2008, the EU adopted the GDPR, i.e. the General Data Protection Regulation, whose solutions have implemented since 2019 in the legal system of the Republic of Serbia. Adequate application of this regulation required knowledge, first of all of the Internet with its characteristics, information security, but also general postulates of the right to privacy that have been emerged for decades, mostly through constitutionally guaranteed human rights, but also through media law and its case law. Considering that the law office Milić previously have dialed with the right to privacy in “analog” environment, we readily welcomed these new regulations and took part in the training of Data protection officer, providing services for the implementation of solutions in business entities, as well as through participation in public appearances, media and conferences.
Considering that lawyer Dragan Milić has been the arbitrator of the Commission for resolving disputes regarding the registration of national internet domains since 2011 , at the Chamber of Commerce of Serbia, where as president or member of the arbitration panel participates in making decisions on requests to take over or terminate .RS internet domain registration, the law office has built a wealth practice in these areas of law as well.
The law office provides services primarily in the following legal areas:
- INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY – (Includes registration and protection of domestic and international trademarks, copyrights of various forms, including support for the development and protection of software solutions and programming code. Protection and enforcement of other industrial property rights, such as patents and designs, are also services we provide within representation.)
- COPYRIGHT – Although this branch of law is an integral part of Intellectual Property Law, since the law firm has largely involved in copyright protection and representation of authors on the one hand and the media on the other, the rich experience in this field puts us on the map of the important participants in creating practices and trends in this legal branch.
- MEDIA LAW – (Media law is a legal area that regulates broadcasting, advertising, telecommunications, media part of information technologies, entertainment, gaming and film industry, print and online media services, but also issues of censorship, freedom of speech, press, media ethics, damages caused as a result of the media, regulation assigned to a vertical and horizontal concentration of media ownership and more. A special part of the media law concerns the right to privacy in the context of disclosure of information in the media and any violation of personal rights. As part of the media law, there is the right of entertainment industry ( Entertainment law ), which this industry in the US alone accounts for about 3% of GDP.)
- INTERNET LAW – Internet law is very difficult to define due to the breadth of its activities and constant technological changes, which we witness every day. It is one of the youngest branches of law, arising from the need to expand the existing one, creating a new regulatory framework that would regulate the Internet and bring the necessary legal security and safety of its users. Internet law or cyber law, as it is also called, includes the regulation of contractual and tortuous relations on the network, the right to privacy, freedom of speech and intellectual property that finds its application on the global network, Internet security, copyright on computer program codes and databases, criminal offenses arising from online activities, online betting, as well as the tax aspect of the exchange of goods and services online. It also covers areas of property rights in the case of ownership of digital data, internet domains, etc.)

- PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION – The Internet has brought new ways in which one’s privacy can be violated with much more disastrous and far-reaching consequences for the injured party. Through the personal data that can be collected in this way, it may enter to the deepest spheres of the personality, and human integrity can be irreparably endangered in the most difficult ways. One of the characteristic ways of violating the right to protection of personal data and privacy on the Internet is unauthorized monitoring, storage and processing of information on the activities of the Internet users, especially through metadata or information about the communications themselves. Since today’s software systems, with the help of algorithms, easily connect and cross the obtained data and based on them generate a very precise and detailed picture of the contacts, interests and other preferences of the person to whom the metadata refers, this data represents high-risk categories of privacy information and they require special legal treatment and caution when it comes to the implementation of these regulations both in practice and through the general acts of the company. The development of potential dangers to personal data is accompanied by new regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which has already entered into force in the EU, and through legal changes, our regulations have harmonized with this regulation.
