Patent, Trademark, Copyright Law Basics for Creative People

Patent, Trademark, Copyright Law Basics for Creative People

This course is meant for anyone who wants to protect their intellectual property in the USA, no matter what country you may live in.

Every creative person is a target to have their work stolen and used by unscrupulous people and companies. In the Entrepreneur's Guide to Protecting Your Creative Work, you will get the tools to stop thieves from using your work without your authorization. You'll learn how to apply for patents, trademarks and copyrights without using an attorney, and how to communicate with an attorney if you do want to use one to help you get protection.

Mary Lou and I have invented 50 different consumer products for our own company. We've earned ten patents, dozens of registered trademarks and hundreds of copyrights over the past 40 years. We filed our own intellectual property applications at times, and we also worked closely with a legal team to file our applications. We also used an attorney to argue our cases with patent and trademark examiners when necessary. We even won a jury verdict in a major trademark lawsuit in Federal District Court in Denver, Colorado. We tell you this because we want you to feel confident we understand intellectual property from our entrepreneur's and artist's perspective.
