Assignment

Hi,

Want to know if there is a fundamental difference between transfer deeds and assignment. We generally talk of assignment with relations to transfer of claim, right etc.

But isn't unconditional assignment and sale practically the same. There may be some cases when the two may not amount to the same and there are of course some minor differences.
For example what would be the difference between an unconditional assignment of copyright and sale??

Again, we talk of assignment of insurance policies. Isn't it as good as transfer of all rights / ownership in that if it is an unconditional assignment.

Can you pls throw some light on this as I am about to draft an assignment deed and need some clarity. Your guidance will be greatly appreciated.
