I am trying to get the perfect cake made for somebody and I can’t seem to do anything!!! I wanted to use a Seed Of Chucky pic and a jigsaw pic and I can’t use either of them because of the copyright law. Does anyone know who I can go to, to recieve permission to use those photos?? I know its just a cake, but it needs to be perfect.

I am an entertainment personality known as The Russian Queen of Balloons. I am a popular live performance artist. My blog: http://mylifeandart.typepad.com
I twist balloon art live during events. You can read media articles about me on the left side of my page under ‘Press Coverage’ (click on the blue links, each is a press story)
I want to find an intellectual property (entertainment) attorney who would advise me on how I can leverage my brand, The Russian Queen of Balloons, and cross over into: 1) product development under my brand name and/or endorsement of a product or service; and/or licensing of my “name and personality”.
What are the ways that I can use to find an honest, well-connected intellectual property / entertainment attorney?

I am looking for an illustration for a book cover, among images of ancient Japanese art, how can I find if anyone owns the copyright to the image I select, and what do I need to do about it?

Specifically, when I have to ask permission from, say, Coca-Cola to use their brand names (Coca-Cola Classic, C2, Dasani) on my webpage. I have already searched the US Patent and Trademark Office. Would a lawyer be my best source?

I have an idea for a new product that is a variation of a few other products on the market. I looked up the federal patent laws and it doesn’t look like I’m breaking any existing laws, but I definitely don’t want to get sued (and can’t afford to hire a lawyer to look things over for me). If I want to start a small business on the side to make at the most an extra hundred dollars a months to pay my gas bill, would anyone come after me if I were breaking a patent law, and what would the penalty be? (Would I get a cease and desist order and be able to just stop, or would I get a huge fine or something.)

I need some information on copyright infringement but more specially music and movie piracy. I have to do a five page report on why it is illegal. I need information that include some statistics. Thanks.
