Register your
copyright.
We prepare and submit your copyright registration to the United States Copyright Office. Government fees included. Filed in two to three business days.
Four reasons.
One certificate.
A copyright infringement action cannot be brought in federal court without a registration certificate. Without it, the courthouse door is closed.
With timely registration, a court may award $750 to $30,000 per work, and up to $150,000 for willful infringement, without proof of actual loss (17 U.S.C. §§412, 504(c)).
A prevailing plaintiff may recover reasonable attorney’s fees and full court costs at the court’s discretion.
A registration within five years of first publication is prima facie evidence of validity. The burden of proof shifts.
Three steps.
We submit within 2-3 business days of receiving your complete order.
A short online form captures your work, your name, the year of completion, and the basis of claim.
We review the deposit, the claimant and anything that could delay the Copyright Office's examination.
We submit your application to the U.S. Copyright Office and send you the case number. The Copyright Office examines the claim and issues the certificate; we forward it and any correspondence to you.
