All
intellectual Property (IP) is valuable. You never
know who's problem you are solving with an idea
or new concept.
Protecting
your work using one of our patented First Protection
Envelopes is a very sensible step; however, there
are many unscrupulous individuals working alone
and in major organisations that plagiarise, alter
and use IP for their own ends. Sometimes the only
way to prevent this unmitigated theft is to use
the law.
Going
to court can be expensive.
As
part of the future products of Copyright Protection
Agency (UK) Ltd we will be introducing full legal
expenses cover in the form of a Litigation protection
Insurance policy.
There
are two types of litigation expense; Offensive,
where you go after someone for infringing or using
your IP and Defensive where you protect yourself
from someone who may claim that you have infringed
them.
Either
way you are involved in spiralling costs. To cover
you against these costs you will be able to take
out an instant policy and download an immediate
Certificate of Insurance.
Then,
when you approach a business to sell your ideas
or other creative work, you will have a Warranty
of Originality to show that you thought of it first
or prove the date of creation AND a Certificate
of Insurance to let them know that if they steal
your work you will be able to afford a court case.
You
can get Legal Expenses cover at the moment but premiums
can be from £1,000 upwards. We are working
on a scheme for you where you will get instant cover,
subject to certain conditions, from £200 per
policy.
If
you can't wait that long, contact us on 0845 053
1789 and we will help you to organize cover through
one of our many IP insurance contacts, subject to
your specific needs.
