Copyright Law
In many respects, copyrights are the most flexible form of intellectual property protection, covering works from books and music to computer programs and product labels. For that reason, copyright law is often misunderstood and misapplied, creating problems both for the owner of the copyright and the party who may have infringed on it. We can help you understand the ins and outs of copyright protection, so you can decide when and how to apply it – and when and how to defend it.

Our firm can provide counseling and a legal framework for copyright transactions, including acquisition and protection of copyrighted material, negotiating and drafting agreements covering the development, transfer and licensing of copyrighted works, preparing and prosecuting applications for copyright registration, and counseling on enforcement and licensing.
