Intellectual Property

A patent is the primary way inventors in the U.S. protect their inventions from others. But to receive this protection, you must fully disclose the nature of your invention through the patent application process. Haffey Vap PLLC can help you with your patent application

Whether you have created a song, a game, a movie or a piece of jewelry, your hard work and creative expression deserves to be protected. A copyright can offer that protection, giving you exclusive rights to the distribution, copy, modification, public display and public performance of your work. While there are exceptions to the rules surrounding your creative expression, copyright remains one of the fundamental ways to protect it.

Haffey Vap PLLC works with a wide range of clients to register and protect their copyrights. The attorneys have also helped clients to defend themselves against accusations of copyright infringement. Working with inventors, artists, authors and engineers, they have the ability to make sure that the legal protections available to you and your expressions are applied effectively.

When you are trying to build and grow a business, particularly if it is technology based, at some point you may need to explore the idea of licensing intellectual property rights. Reaching a licensing agreement can allow you to extend the reach of your business and often allows you to improve on your existing offering.

Experienced legal counsel is a necessity to make sure that the agreement protects your interests.

If you are considering a licensing agreement, contact the firm to learn about the options available to you, and to obtain experienced legal counsel that will work hard on your behalf.
