Copyright Registration & Enforcement
Houston Copyright Attorney
Copyright registration is the process of officially recording your creative work with a government agency, such as the United States Copyright Office. This registration serves as a public record of your ownership of the copyrighted material and provides legal evidence of the copyright claim.
Copyright enforcement refers to the act of protecting and asserting the rights granted to you as a copyright holder under copyright law. This includes preventing unauthorized use, reproduction, distribution, or modification of the copyrighted work and taking legal action against those who infringe on these rights.
Although copyright comes into being the moment an original work is created, copyright enforcement usually requires a copyright owner to obtain registration before bringing any action to enforce copyright or before executing any agreement to license that copyright.
Filing for copyright registration, before an infringing activity, also increases the potential damages that may be recovered. Copyrighting critical material is a forward-thinking business decision that brings revenue possibilities in the present and future protection of your business.

Our team understands the value of business copyrights. For example, architects and architectural firms protect their building design and blueprints, engineers protect line drawings and schematics, and IT companies protect the software they write for businesses to use.
Copyright law confers upon the copyright owner the exclusive right to reproduce the work, to distribute the work, and to display the work. Many times, a copyright lawsuit is based on an infringer improperly using some of these rights, without a license (permission from the owner). It is the job of a copyright attorney to help the owner protect these rights.
