CLEonline.com, together with the Houston Bar Association, are pleased to present a practical online CLE seminar in the area of intellectual property law. Because copyright infringement is so easily accomplished in our digital society, and it is very tempting to skirt the law to save money, copyright suits are on the rise. Because Title 17 is deceptively simple and seems intuitive, general practice lawyers often dig their clients deep into a hole before they know it.
This seminar features an audio presentation from a live CLE seminar on this topic that was originally conducted by the Houston Bar Association (HBA) on January 16, 2009. This audio presentation features attorney Dana LeJune of the Houston firm of Dana LeJune & Associates. This is a streaming audio presentation that you can access on demand at any time during the course of the seminar session. The audio presentation runs for approximately 1.25 hours. This seminar is entitled:
HBA Presents: "Copyright Infringement for the General Practitioner"
** (available at any time of the day and in time increments convenient to you during the above referenced dates) **
Subjects to be discussed during this CLEonline.com seminar include:
