While trademark law protects brands and patent law protects ideas, copyright law protects the creative assets such as photographs and website content. Gerben IP is equipped to assist you through what can be an intimidating process to help you best protect the copyrights in your creative products.
Copyrights are surrounded by misconceptions—such as that false 30% rule or the so-called “poor man’s copyright,” or attempting to mail yourself a letter in place of proper registration—that an attorney can help you avoid. The creative aspect of copyrights also poses an issue of subjectivity, and many are left wondering whether or not their work can be protected by a registration—instead of guessing, ask an experienced copyright attorney whether or not your design likely meets the creative threshold.
Whether your proposed copyright is a photograph, website, a computer program, or a novel, Gerben IP is happy to help you secure a copyright to protect your design. We are also able to assist with ownership and authorship issues that may arise as well as copyright transfers, assignments and terminations.
If you have any questions or concerns about your particular copyright, please contact one of our attorneys—we are always happy to provide a complimentary consultation.
