Legal Question
Do I have copyright protection on videos produced for a company who now refuses to pay for them? The company currently is airing them on the site.

Legal Answer
Probably you do. However, if you signed a work for hire agreement, they would belong to the company. You do not get ownership simply because your customer refuses to pay. Normally the photographer owns the copyright unless there is an agreement to the contrary.
