The expansion of the Internet has led to an expansion in IP infringement claims stemming from content posted or otherwise shared via the Internet.From blogs and websites to social networks, it has become increasingly common for IP rights to be infringed. Mike Hurst, Partner at KMK, will address some of the most prevalent issues facing clients today. In particular, Mike will discuss rules for when you can use others’ content without violating their copyright, how trademarks of others can be legally used online, and techniques for leveraging the content of others without breaking the law. Mike will also discuss how the various take-down policies that have been put in place by social networks, such as Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest are similar, as well as how they differ, and what these policies mean to both lawyers and their clients.

Location: The Cincinnatian Hotel

This program has been approved for 1.0 hours of Professionalism CLE in Ohio

Lawyers have traditionally donated their time through pro bono legal work and other community service. The aspiration to serve runs deep in the legal profession, to the point that it is expressed in our professional creed. Many lawyers desire to serve others in one way or another, but are challenged with finding the time and the best way to make an impact. The program will include a discussion of a lawyer’s calling to community service, the role of the lawyer in the community, and whether community service for lawyers should relate to legal issues. We will also discuss various projects and organizations seeking community service volunteers, and we will hear from one organization, Dress For Success (DfSC), regarding how one might get involved with their organization.

CincyIP would also like to take this opportunity to ask our members to give back to those that are less fortunate through Dress for Success during this holiday season. We will be accepting donations at our monthly meeting. For additional information, including alternate donation drop-off times and locations and details for donating, please visit our website.
