Copyrighting your work is pretty simple--in most cases, as soon as you've put your work into a fixed medium (for example, writing song lyrics on a piece of paper or saving your digital artwork to your computer or cloud storage), you instantly own the copyright to that work.

However, owning a copyright is different from enforcing it. We offer services that help you fully protect your work, stop infringement, and secure your right to monetize.

Copyright Registration

• Comprehensive evaluation of your work to ensure it meets the requirements for copyright protection.

• Preparation and filing of your complete application with the U.S. Copyright Office.

• Strategic advice on registering collections, published vs. unpublished works, and online content.

• Management of the entire process, ensuring accuracy to avoid costly delays or rejections.

Licensing & Monetization Strategy

• Drafting and negotiating licensing agreements (exclusive and non-exclusive).

• Advising on royalty structures, scope of use, territory, and duration.

• Reviewing licensing offers from third parties to ensure your interests are protected.

• Developing strategies for merchandising, distribution, and digital rights management.

Copyright Advisory & Dispute Resolution

• Fair Use Analysis: Receive formal legal opinions on whether your use of another's work, or another's use of your work, likely qualifies as "fair use."

• Parody & Satire Guidance: Advice on the specific legal standards for creating and defending parody-based content.

• Infringement Claims: Assess the strength of potential infringement claims, send cease-and-desist letters, and negotiate resolutions.

Your creative work is more than just an idea—it's your passion, your product, and your intellectual property. In today's digital world, protecting that work is not just prudent; it's essential to your success and peace of mind.

Our office provides comprehensive copyright legal services to safeguard your original works of authorship.
