Artists, Authors, Musicians, Software Code in Oklahoma
Tomlinson, Rust, McKinstry & Grable intellectual property attorneys regularly advise artists, authors, musicians, software developers and their representatives on the legal protections offered under current copyright law. The moment your idea has been instantiated in physical form – whether as a painting, work of art, novel, play, song lyric or functional piece of software code – you become the only person allowed to copy that work. Copyright registration allows an added layer of protection of a created work, and deterrence against potential infringers. Should someone else copy the work without your written permission, your copyright has been infringed upon and you have the right to seek damages or other legal remedies.
Our attorneys can help you determine the appropriate works to register with the U.S. Copyright Office, and can protect your financial interests in the event that your copyrighted work has been used without permission. The Tomlinson, Rust, McKinstry & Grable business and complex litigation team regularly resolves complicated copyright infringement disputes in federal court, as well as “trial-like” adjudicative settings.
