Newport Beach Copyright Lawyers

Copyright Lawyers Newport Beach

At The Myers Law Group in Newport Beach, California, our lawyers have extensive experience securing protection for copyrightable works under federal copyright laws. The subject matter entitled to copyright protection is quite diverse and includes such things as architectural works, audio-visual works, computer software, screenplays, photos, fashion designs and literary works.

When Does Copyright Protection Begin?

Protection under United States copyright laws begins immediately upon the creation and fixation of the work in a physical form. However, federal registration of copyrights provides substantial advantages in the event that litigation is necessary to enforce the copyright such as the right to recover statutory damages and attorneys’ fees.

Note: Registration is a prerequisite to initiation of a copyright infringement action.
