Area: Copyrights
Group: Intellectual Property
  Copyright law is based upon legal rights granted by the United States Constitution and statutes and laws of other countries to promote creativity for the public’s benefit, by protecting authors’ exclusive rights to their creations for a limited time. Almost all forms of expression that are fixed in a tangible medium of expression, are original, and are minimally creative will be capable of obtaining copyright protection. By using copyright law, creators or inventors can gain valuable legal rights to use, protect, and license their creations. Lanier Ford Shaver & Payne provides counseling on copyright registration and other steps that can yield significant advantages in licensing and protecting copyrights.
