Patent

Patent is a declaration from a government that an invention or process is new or innovative enough to be granted the exclusive ability to manufacture or otherwise use the invention for a set period of time. A patent may be issued for a broad variety of purposes such as new drugs, a new technology for producing a certain item, a methodology for software or a new distinctive product. Trademarks are also an area of intellectual property that can be protected.

Contracts

Contracts are promises that the law will enforce. The law provides remedies if a promise is breached or recognizes the performance of a promise as a duty. Contracts arise when a duty does or may come into existence, because of a promise made by one of the parties. To be legally binding as a contract, a promise must be exchanged for adequate consideration. Adequate consideration is a benefit or detriment which a party receives which reasonably and fairly induces them to make the promise/contract . For example, promises that are purely gifts are not considered enforceable because the personal satisfaction the grantor of the promise may receive from the act of giving is normally not considered adequate consideration. Certain promises that are not considered contracts may, in limited circumstances, be enforced if one party has relied to his detriment on the assurances of the other party.

Copyright

The owner of a registered copyright enjoys the ability of blocking the unauthorized copying or public performance of a work protected by copyright. Depending on how old a work is, whether or not copyright was renewed, when the work was published (if at all), and whether or not it is a work for hire, the U.S. copyright term for a work may be 28 years, 56 years, the life of the author plus 50 years, 75 years from the publication date, or 100 years from the date of creation. The reader will appreciate that these terms are much longer than the 17-year or 20-year term of a U.S. utility patent.

Computer Fraud

Lawrence E. Feldman & Associates represents individuals and businesses that have been victimized by computer fraud.

Computers have become a fully integrated technology in our everyday lives that are relied upon to ease our workload and increase our quality of life. With this also comes the opportunity to be taken advantage of by individuals with the skills and knowledge to exploit the power of the computer. Mistakes caused by the negligence of others can also lead to fraudulent use of this important technology.

With the widespread use computerisation and inter-networking technologies and the methods by which information is handled within society has enabled computer fraud to spread dramatically. Never before has an individual been able to readily perpetrate a computer fraud and reach so many people so far away effortlessly and inexpensively. As such computer fraud must be seen as part of a continuing trend.

Having access to a credit card and an Internet account and suddenly it is possible to conduct international transactions and perpetrate computer fraud.

The information flows associated with computer fraud do not recognise political boundaries. It has become extremely easy to transmit currency and information rapidly around the globe. As such computer fraud has become for the most part more difficult to investigate and relevant laws and regulations designed to discourage computer fraud appear to be lagging behind.

In a way the laws that govern information assist the perpetrators of computer fraud. In the main such laws are provincial, and are tied to local regulations of countries where not only are the statutes unique, so too are the cultures and social norms which control them. A further benefit to the architect of computer fraud.

Computer fraud can cost it's victims large amounts of money, not to mention the lost time spent resolving the issues.
