I know people can't really help me here, but I know we have lawyers, and I know lawyers know costs.
I don't know shit about shit in this arena and I need to copyright like six or seven things. Help.

Prettymuch that. It's what we did for house plans when I worked on them.
The bitch isn't filing copyright, it's enforcing it. That's where the lawyers make all the money.

When she crossed over, she was just a ship. But when she came back... she was bullshit!

If you're talking copyrighting creative writing type stuff, that's easy. If it's trademarks, get a lawyer, because trademark enforceability is a black art all its own, which essentially comes down to how hair-trigger you are about throwing lawyers at anyone that is approaching infringement and how well prepared your application was. --Dave

Also, whoever has the most money wins the suit. Or, at least that's the case in patent law. I hear.

Copyrights, trademarks, and patents are three very different things. Which do you really need? If it's just copyrights, that's easy--copyrights are automatic and free, or can be registered online for a modest fee (see the previous links). Trademarks are more expensive and harder to establish, and have to be defended vigorously (i.e., legal expenses). Patents are even more expensive to file and defend. Also, whoever has the most money wins the suit. Or, at least that's the case in patent law. I hear.
If the defendant gets to file suit in Texas they win most patent cases, due to the default assumption of "guilty until proven innocent" that is prevalent in that jurisdiction. Otherwise, cases tend to hinge on the high degree of technical and scientific acumen possessed by most Federal judges.

Dude, just PM me. Assuming, of course, that you still need help.

I traded in my fun blog for several legal blogs. Or, "blawgs," as the cutesy attorney blawgosphere likes to call 'em.
