How to Protect Your Great Ideas or Works for Your Family
Your money, home, and vehicles are not the only things you should include in your estate plan. Your intellectual property and any income it generates should also be addressed. You do not have to be a famous author, painter, or inventor to have valuable intellectual property that could provide a stream of income for your family members or loved ones after you pass away.
What Is Intellectual Property?
Intellectual property is a work or invention that is the result of the human creativity and intellect and can be legally protected, e.g., by copyrights, patents, and trademarks. It is protected by federal (and sometimes state) law and can have great economical value.
