Copyright Protection

International Copyright Protection Attorneys

Whereas trademarks protect the good will in a company or product, copyrights are designed to protect original works of art or creative expression, including literary works, graphics, photographs, film, software, and sound recordings.  A copyright does what the name implies.  A copyright provides the owner the "right" to control any "copy" of the work.  This includes control over production, reproduction, distribution, performance and display.

If you are the owner or creator of an original work of art, you may need assistance in obtaining a copyright registration.  Even though a copyright exists upon creation of a work, a registration is essential when filing a lawsuit to protect your creative work and important for other reasons.  An attorney experienced with copyrights can help protect your interests.
