Copyright is a protective legal option given to the originators of certain intangible works and creative expressions. Call your copyright attorneys when you want to protect your own web design, recordings, artwork, literary works and other intangible, valuable creative works. The scope of what can be copyrighted is vast, including visual design, logos, trademarks, performing art, trade secrets, processes and other intangible assets like software programs and screen displays.
Getting a copyright involves detailed research and filing of properly executed legal documents. Copyright attorneys are experts at obtaining copyrights for their clients. They have experience with the complex copyright laws in this country and globally. It is important to obtain licensed professional legal advice for gaining copyrights effectively. Time is of the essence, and your copyright lawyers know all about copyright deadlines and filing procedures.
A registered copyright is granted to an originator for a certain period of time that may vary by country. There also are some global agreements between foreign countries that help protect ideation and copyrights. This is important in the modern era of internet use, as works are so easily copied and reproduced.
The main reason for obtaining copyright registration is to protect the creator’s right to financial gain from their intangible intellectual work. Items that are intellectual property are usually intangible and can be easily copied by others. If an item holds an official copyright, there are legal ways to enforce those rights and receive compensation for copyright infringement. That would be another situation when a copyright holder would want to bring in their copyright attorneys.
The time to consult with your copyright attorneys would be as soon as your idea or creative work is expressed or put forward publicly. The copyright registration will act as proof of verification of the date of creation. It also notifies anyone else that you have exclusive rights to the creative work. A copyright may last from 70 to 120 years, depending on circumstances of use.
Copyrights can be bought and sold, leased, licensed or otherwise subcontracted out for others to use legally. The major reason and benefit to having a copyright is that you retain rights to any monetary gain that is accrued from use of your intellectual work. Copyrights may be renewed and government fees for copyright services are not great in the United States. Fees for most copyright needs vary from $30 to $220. Consult your copyright attorneys to stay abreast of recurring deadlines for copyright renewals.
