Discussing how to maximize your IP with a video game lawyer
summary
Covers the three IP types—copyrights, trademarks, patents—and gives concrete rules: work made for hire requires written agreement for contractors, register copyright early to access statutory damages, and derivative works remain separately owned unless assignment is explicit. Cites the Naruto monkey selfie precedent and states AI-generated art lacks copyright under current guidance. Practical tools are cease‑and‑desist, DMCA takedown, litigation; patents are costly, first‑to‑file, provisional filings preserve novelty for one year before public disclosure.
