Copyright Infringement Disputes: Protecting your rights under federal copyright law
Registration with the U.S. Copyright Office gives the owner of a copyright the ability to reproduce, distribute, or use the creative material in any given manner and excludes anyone else from utilizing the material in any such manner without the owner's permission. Proper registration of the copyright also gives the owner the right to pursue statutory damages as a remedy in copyright infringement litigation.
Our intellectual property lawyers represent clients in copyright infringement disputes involving any form of reproduction or use of copyrighted material without permission. Representing both plaintiffs and defendants in copyright infringement disputes, we offer comprehensive knowledge in federal copyright laws and effective strategies to pursue financial relief or challenge infringement allegations.
Remedies for Copyright Infringement
Our service in copyright litigation includes pursuing preliminary injunctions in applicable situations to prevent further infringement throughout the duration of the case. In addition to seeking permanent injunctions (prohibiting further unauthorized use of the material), we pursue compensation for actual damages as well as profits acquired through the illegal use of copyrighted material. If our client properly registered the copyright material with the U.S. Copyright Office within the strict deadlines, we may pursue statutory damages as an alternative to the actual damages — which can be difficult to assess and demonstrate in many situations.
