Arizona Copyright Protection Legal Services.
The law office of Peter N. Greenfeld P.C. offers legal services in all aspects of copyright law. As Phoenix Copyright Attorneys, we can answer your copyright questions, and can assist you or your organization in the creation of licensing agreements, so that you can legally use copyrighted material or allow the use of your copyrighted material for a negotiated fee. Copyright Lawyers can also draft documents or litigate to compel other parties to desist from using your copyrighted materials without permission.
Employee/Employer Copyright Disputes and Issues
Many of the inquiries we receive from our business clients involve disputes over the proper ownership of work created in the context of an employee/employer relationship or in a situation in which a business has hired a freelancer to prepare work. Many of the disputes that arise are because there was no understanding, agreement or permissions in place at the start of the relationship to clearly designate who would own what upon completion of the work. These issues can be avoided if a copyright attorney has been consulted prior to any such engagement. Some situations may appear obvious as to who should own what, but it is not always the case that the person who pays for the creation of the work has ultimate ownership. In some circumstances, unless there is a special kind of agreement in place before any work begins, someone who is hired to prepare work for your existing material might be able to sell the work that they prepared elsewhere without your permission even though you paid them to do that work. Proper licensing prepared by a copyright attorney should provide the protection to address such concerns.
Protect Your Copyright Rights with Proper Licensing and Other Copyright Protection.
Copyright protection is available for unique works ranging from architural designs, operating manuals, technical writing, photographs, images, sales videos, marketing and promotional materials, brochures, business forms, advertising collateral, art, photographs, marketing materials, recordings, software, broadcasts, choreography and, sometimes, design. Prevent others from profiting from your work and property. Proper licensing prepared by a copyright attorney should provide the protection to address such concerns.
Copyright services are often necessary as businesses produce unique materials as part of their daily business. Copyright legal services are also useful when a business is forming. An experienced copyright lawyer can help in the planning stages of your business by identifying preliminary copyright needs, including the protection of branded imagery and other property.
