: I make a unique product made of steel tubing and fiberglass. It is functional, but the style is distinctive, in the way a particular model of a car is distinctive. I read that artwork is automatically copyrighted, so if I had made a sculpture out of fiberglass I would be protected. Is my style also copyrighted? Someone is reprocing my design, and although they are not using my trademarked name, people could easily mistake his product for mine.

Dear Mr. Meyer,
If available the best protection would be a patent. A trademarks is a stong way to be remembered. A registered copyright Will protect against duplication of the image but cannot in itself kept a monopoly on the product.
