       The  Copyright owner has the exclusive right to reproduce the work, prepare derivative works, distribute copies, and publicly display and/or perform the work. Though a copyright exists when the work is created, registering a copyright provides additional protection in case of copyright infringement, including the right to enforce the copyright in the Courts, receive statutory damages and recover attorney's fees and costs. File your copyrights within 90 days of the first date of publication which allows for recovery of your attorneys fees and court costs when you are successful in a lawsuit.  Registration within that time also provides statutory damages up to $150,000 per infringement. Registration also gives you the right to record your registration with the United States Customs service to protect your work against the importation of infringing copies from foreign countries. Foreign designers who register their original work for copyright protection receive maximum  protection  when selling in the United States.

      To receive lost profits and substantial damages if your work is infringed upon, you must register by filing an application for federal copyright registration. Federal copyrights for works created and registered after 1978 generally last for seventy years after the author's death.      

 If you have more than  one  design please call Michael G. Prestia attorney  for the cost  to file as a series. We accept credit card payment  through Law Pay or  PAY  PAL. Michael G. Prestia, attorney  will be working personally on your application and will contact you before our office   files your  application  with the U.S. Copyright Office. Upon filing, we will email to you  your receipt number to allow you to begin marketing or selling your design while your copyright application is being examined for registration. Should you license your work to a company ,our law firm at  your request will  prepare a license agreement.. We will mail to you your certificate of Registration  upon approval from the US copyright office.
