Our Core Legal Services

Copyright – Business - Tradmark

Criminal Defense

Home

Copyright

As the creative of your work, you have the exclusive right to reproduce, distribute, perform, and license your expressions, among other rights.

 

Copyright protects your original creative work, and should be registered once it is in a tangible form.

 

When we speak of creative work, it maybe a painting on a canvas, a recording of your music, or something literary such as a novel or a poem.

 

At Amyrite Law, we look to protect your expressions so that you can build on that work and continue your artistic journey. And, we look to protect you against potential disputes by pointing out whether you need to credit other creatives and to draft agreements and contracts for you and your collaborators... read more

Business Registration

Small businesses help our community by providing needed services, such as home improvement, landscaping, electricians, graphic design, or training services, among many.

 

At Amyrite Law, we look to help you build your business, from formation through becoming an established and recognized name.

 

We work with businesses in drafting formation documents, registration, and corporation.

 

Trademark

Your brand can set you apart.

 

Registering your brand as a trademark, with your state and with the USPTO will help protect your name –

 

your brand, your product, and your services.

Criminal & Traffic Defense

Incarcerable charges are daunting.

 

We analyze the evidence, whether it’s videos from body-worn-cameras, statements, or driving and license records, and work with you to decide on best-strategies.

 

Then, we represent you in court based on your decision – trial or otherwise.

Criminal Defense

Some states, in particular Massachusetts and New York, when misdemeanors are involved, are recognizing the harm of unnecessary punishment and jail time, and how families, communities, and local economies are adversely affected. These states are working to acknowledge the benefits of a holistic approach and to reform their criminal justice systems, although with resistance from members of the criminal justice system.
