Timing is Everything: Copyright Recapture and You - workshop VLPA - Feb 9 2011

Timing is Everything: Copyright Recapture and You
The Scream
Does legal-ese make you feel like this?
Do you lay awake at night wondering why you ever agreed to that horrible contract years ago? Do you miss the work you gave away as if it were your first born child? Does it irk you that you are getting pennies for your creative work that's now generating millions for someone else? Are you an attorney looking to help a client renegotiate an old deal? Do you just love the VLPA and want to come to every seminar no matter the topic?

If you answered yes to any of the above, save the date for:

The Copyright Act of 1976 recognizes that artists often sign contracts during the early part of their careers that give them the short end of a deal. Congress created a mechanism for artists to recapture their rights by following specific steps to reassert ownership over the copyright. These steps are technical: Congress is not going to just hand you back your rights.

Cost: $10 – ABC Members; $15 – Non Members
For CLE Credit (1.5 hours): $50 – ABC Member Attorneys, $75 Non Member Attorneys
