Examples of Intellectual Property law may include:

Copyright

A legal term used to describe the rights that creators have over their works. These works include books, music, paintings, etc.

Trademark

A sign capable of distinguishing the goods or service of one enterprise from those of another. An example of a trademark would be a brand name.

If you need to defend against intellectual property claims or enforce your own, legal counsel is recommended.
