Frequently Asked Questions:

What are the advantages to have your works copyrighted? icon icon
  • Registering your copyright establishes a public record of your claim, allows you to take legal action against infringement, and may entitle you to statutory damages and attorney’s fees in court.
When do I need to register my copyright? icon icon
  • You can file at any time after you complete your work. However, if you register before or within five years of publication, registration will establish prima facie evidence in court of the validity of the copyright and of the facts stated in the certificate. If you register your work within three months after the publication or prior to an infringement of the work, statutory damages and attorney’s fees will be available to the copyright owner in court actions. Otherwise, only an award of actual damages and profits is available to the copyright owner. In other words, if you wait until there is an infringement to register your work so you can have access to the courts, you may lose the valuable right to seek the recovery of statutory damages and attorneys' fees.
How long does it take to get a copyright registered? icon icon
  • It takes at least 8 months for the Copyright Office to review applications. You can expect a letter, telephone call or email from a Copyright Office staff member if further information is needed.
How long does a copyright last? icon icon
  • In most cases, a copyright lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years. If the author of the work died in 2100, then the copyright, in most situations, would last until 2170. For works made for hire, and for anonymous and pseudonymous works, the duration of copyright is 95 years from publication or 120 years from creation (whichever is shorter)
Will I receive anything after I register my copyright? icon icon
  • Yes, the U.S. Copyright Office will mail you a certificate of registration, typically within 8-12 months.

Legal Hoop responded within minutes of my request. They refiled my trademark the next day and I heard back from USTPO within 24 hours. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is needing trademark or business licensing.

Great Company
The rep was very responsive. Always kept me in the loop. Also the price was reasonable. They gave me hope when other companies wanted to charge outrageous prices as they told me to give up on sending in a trademark dispute.
