Berne makes copyright automatic — but "protected" doesn't mean "easily enforceable". Team-E builds an evidentiary chain for creators and software teams across HK / US / CN: statutory declarations, voluntary registration and contract coverage.
Protection on paper is not enforcement in court — the evidence chain is the weapon.
01
175+ Berne signatories grant copyright the moment a work is created — no registration required. HK runs the same automatic protection — but "protected" doesn't mean "easily enforceable".
02
The US requires registration before suit; CN registration acts as priority evidence; HK uses Statutory Declaration to fix the date and authorship. A timestamped record often decides whether you can sue at all.
03
Software relies on source-code registration and git history; social-platform plagiarism relies on DMCA / takedown channels. With evidence in place, takedowns drop from 14 days to 24 hours.
01
Every IP discipline runs through Team-E — no separate trademark agent, patent firm and domain reseller. One contact, one contract, one progress report.
02
The quote is the final price — official fees and agency work included. Sub-classes, expedites, notarisation, priority claims and renewals are itemised before you sign. No surprise invoices.
03
Filing isn't the finish line — opposition windows, examiner responses, certificate pickup, renewal alerts, infringement watch. We hold the perimeter long after the application is in.
Per-item fees and registration timelines — every line on the all-in price sheet.
