Protecting a copyright can be the difference between profiting from your work and watching someone else profit. Profits from licensing and enforcement of copyrights have grown tremendously in recent years. In addition, the Berne Convention makes your U.S. copyright enforceable in many foreign countries. We can assist you with understanding, obtaining, licensing and protecting copyrights-in short, maximizing the advantages the law affords you.
