Copyright Information
In fact, the copyright office actually prefers that they do not receive a copy of your book for copyright until after the book is published. When a book goes to print, there is always a statement on the “copyright page” that says you own the copyright, and in what year the copyright was applied for. But, when the book goes to print, that copyright normally has not yet been issued by the copyright office. The mere fact that the book says the copyright has been applied for protects the author.
When your books (they ask for two copies) do go to the copyright office, the copyright will be assigned in your name. Here at CSN Books and Legacy Line publishing we believe that since you are the author, you are the one who should own all the rights to your work. We do not contractually tie up your work for five or ten years as many publishers do, nor do we force you to buy your way out of our agreement. Your entire work is under your control; we believe you deserve both the profits and the control.

In this way, you don't have to spend great amounds of money for a copyright lawyer, and that's good.
