Template Overview
When a person who owns a work of any kind and owns the copyright (e.g., novel, song, script) wants to transfer copyright ownership to another person, he can use this Copyright Assignment.

Often, Copyright Assignments are made to allow the recipient party to use that work for any purpose.
Copyright assignments make it easy to transfer copyrighted works. They contain information required to record the assignment in the United States Copyright Office if both parties desire. Registering with the US Copyright Office is not necessary, although it is a great way to ensure that everything goes smoothly during copyright transfer.
