About Copyright Registration
Copyright protects original creative and software works from the moment of creation, but registration creates strong, dated evidence of ownership, useful in licensing deals and infringement disputes. We prepare and file the application with the Copyright Office.
IP filings are handled by our IP desk, which tracks every application in the IP India journal and alerts you to objections, oppositions and renewal dates.
