LawyerFinder.com is a FREE consumer service. We are NOT a law firm.  We assist consumers in locating Copyright Lawyers and law firms in specific regions.

We provide comprehensive law firm profiles so that you can review, screen and learn more about our members prior to contacting an attorney.  In many cases our Copyright Lawyer members provide useful articles and example cases to aid you in intelligently choosing the most appropriate legal representation for your unique situation.

To locate a Copyright Lawyer, simply choose a state from the form to the top right or choose the link from the left hand menu of this page.

Copyright is a set of exclusive rights granted by government for a limited time to regulate the use of a particular form, way or manner in which an idea or information is expressed. Copyright may subsist in a wide range of creative or artistic forms or "works" and subject matter other than works. These include literary works, movies, musical works, sound recordings, paintings, photographs, software, live performances, television or sound broadcasts and in some jurisdictions industrial designs. Copyright is a type of intellectual property; designs or industrial designs may be a separate or overlapping form of intellectual property in some jurisdictions.

Copyright law only covers the particular form or manner in which ideas or information have been manifested, the "form of material expression". It is not designed or intended to cover the actual idea, concepts, facts, styles or techniques which may be embodied in or represented by the copyright work. Copyright law provides scope for satirical or interpretive works which themselves may be copyright.

For example, the copyright which subsists in relation to a Mickey Mouse cartoon prohibits unauthorised parties from distributing copies of the cartoon or creating derivative works which copy or mimic Disney’s particular talking mouse, but does not prohibit the creation of artistic works about talking mice in general. Other forms of intellectual property may impose legal restrictions where copyright does not. (this article compliments of Wikipedia)
