Trademarks

Harry Jay Levin, P.C. provides assistance in registering, enforcing, and protecting trademarks. After all, a trademark—whether a logo or name—is developed to make a brand stand out, and it’s essential to ensure that it’s not used without consent. A trademark identifies the source of goods or services and helps establish the brand’s identity. Before finalizing a trademark, it is crucial to confirm that no similar marks are already in use. The firm can guide clients through this clearance process and, once a trademark is cleared, assist in securing it to protect those rights.

Copyrights

Copyright protection applies to any original work that has been fixed in a tangible medium, such as books, songs, photographs, and computer software. As the creator, copyright ownership is automatically conferred upon the creation of the work. If someone uses that work without permission, it constitutes copyright infringement. While protection is automatic, registering the work adds an additional layer of legal security and can be vital if ownership needs to be proven in the future. Harry Jay Levin, P.C. can help register and protect copyrights, as well as assist in drafting release forms and agreements to control the use and distribution of the work.
