The attorneys of Jafari Law Group, Inc. practice intellectual property law with an eye toward business and business law with an eye toward
intellectual property - this is why we have obtained, and continue to obtain, the business of dynamic companies and entrepreneurs - our firm
understands that intellectual property is only valuable if it creates income and a business can suffer without carefully defined intellectual property.

Every business needs to protect its own intellectual property (via patents, trademarks and/or copyright).  Our Patent Law Division is a perfect
compliment to both your growing business and to the services offered by Jafari Business Law. Jafari Patent Law will provide you with important
day-to-day intellectual property and patent consultation as well as formulating long-term strategic plans.  And these strategies will be articulated
and executed in concert with your global business plan. 

Our firm has successfully prosecuted various patents, from simple design patents to complex utility patents covering sub-orbital/orbital space
travel propulsion systems (yes – ‘rocket science’).  Our experience and technical knowledge allow us to comprehensively evaluate your concept,
search the relevant prior art and competition, create a detailed report of your options and the repercussions of those options.

• COPYRIGHT LAW: Your creative expression, be it a painting or a paragraph of text describing your business, can be protected via Federal Copyright filing.

  YOUR ORIGINAL WORK OF AUTHORSHIP, RECORDED IN PHYSICAL FORM, IS YOUR COPYRIGHTED PROPERTY; BUT, IF YOU WANT TO PROSECUTE INFRINGERS, FEDERAL COPYRIGHT REGISTRATION IS A NECESSITY.  Any “original work of authorship” can be copyright protected subject matter.  If you take photographs, paint, choreograph, write anything from poetry to novels, music to software or advertisement copy to corporate SEC filings, you may copyright that creative work (unless the work was one “made for hire” and is therefore  the property of your employer).

   

  ONCE FILED WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, YOU MAY GO AFTER THOSE WHO USE YOUR CREATIVE WORK WITHOUT YOUR CONSENT.  Certain use of copyrighted works is considered “Fair Use” while other use would be considered infringement and subject to penalty.  The intellectual property attorneys of Jafari Law Group can provide you with necessary analysis of any potential infringement.  When you believe someone is misappropriating your creative work, we will analyze the facts and the law and offer you our legal opinion.  If it appears that there is an improper use of your work, we will move forward quickly to negotiate a resolution of your matter, whether it is obtainment of a quick settlement or full litigation of a novel situation. 

   

  COPYRIGHT MAY SEEM SIMPLE IN CERTAIN WAYS, BUT INFRINGERS ARE EVERYWHERE AND DETERRING THEM WHILE ALSO PROFITING FROM YOUR OWN CREATIVE EFFORTS REQUIRES LEGAL EXPERTISE IN DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND CONTRACT NEGOTIATION.  Having a relationship with an attorney established will allow you to pounce on infringers of your copyright rather than shopping around for an attorney, having your initial interview(s) and slowly getting your action processed.  While you are trying to find an attorney to take your case, the people infringing your work are making money off of your efforts everyday.  When we are your attorneys we will already know your file and the subject creative work and it will give us the knowledge to act quickly and stop infringers from taking your money.
