Episode Details

Farzad Panjshiri is an attorney who focuses on Intellectual Property law. We explore the main forms of IP law with some attention to entertainment law aspects. But so much is "it depends". We lawyers don't always love this phrase, but it is a mantra. We discuss Trademarks and Service Marks, composite, design and word marks; Copyrights and their forms; Fair Use and other exceptions; the frequent disconnect between a State and the Federal governments; Trade Secrets; and we even touch on Patents. While we tried to highlight entertainment law, we probably only scratched the surface because "it depends".
