What Are Copyright Infringement Damages?

Copyright infringement damages are the monetary rewards available to copyright owners whose protected work is used in an unauthorized manner. These damages include (1) actual damages and any additional profits of the infringer, or (2) statutory damages. Additional damages may be available in cases of willful infringement, and, where a work is registered, attorneys’ fees may be included.
