Intellectual Property Legal Questions and Answers
Intellectual Property
Developer Agreement
California
What are the key elements that should be included in a Developer Agreement?
I am a software developer and I have been approached by a company to develop a mobile application for them. They have provided me with a Developer Agreement to review and sign. However, I am not familiar with the legal aspects of such agreements and I want to ensure that I am protecting my rights and interests. I would like to know what are the essential elements that should be included in a Developer Agreement to safeguard my work, ownership of intellectual property, and ensure fair compensation for my services.
Dolan W.
When you're reviewing a Developer Agreement, it’s really important to make sure it covers the basics while also protecting your rights and interests. Here’s a breakdown of what you should look out for in plain terms: Hello! My name is Dolan and I am happy to help. First off, the agreement should clearly describe the scope of work (often called the "SOW") This means it needs to explain exactly what you're expected to do, including the features or functionality of the app, the timeline for delivery, and any milestones. Make it specific. It has to be clear what is defined as intellectual property and then who owns it. Compensation is another big one. The agreement should spell out how much you’re being paid, whether it’s a flat fee, hourly rate, or based on milestones. I Confidentiality clauses are pretty standard, but you’ll want to make sure they don’t go overboard. Termination clauses are also super important. These should say under what conditions either of you can end the agreement. Make sure that if the company decides to end things early, you’ll still get paid for the work you’ve done up to that point. We can always draft these things for you or look over what you've drafted. Best of luck! Dolan

Trademark Cease And Desist
California
Can I ignore a cease and desist letter for trademark infringement if I believe my use of the mark is fair use?
I recently received a cease and desist letter from a company claiming that my use of their trademark in my blog posts constitutes trademark infringement. However, I am using the mark in a descriptive manner to criticize and comment on their products, which I believe falls under fair use. I am unsure of how to proceed and whether I can ignore the cease and desist letter without facing legal consequences.
Dolan W.
Hello! Thank you for posting this question. In your case, the other party may claim that you are infringing on their trademark, but proving it is a different case. The Lanham Act provides for a cause of action for infringement of both registered and unregistered trademarks. (15 USC Section 1114(1)(a); 15 USC Section 1125(a)(1)A).) The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has laid out some elements to help determine whether it creates an infringement lawsuit. 1. The complaining party has to prove they have a valid, protectable trademark and that they own that trademark; 2. The complaining party must prove that a mark is similar, and it was used without the consent of the moving party in a manner that is likely to cause confusion among ordinary consumers as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation, or approval of the goods. The likelihood of confusion can occur at the time of the sale, when there is initial interest by a consumer, or even after the sale, if the confusion causes a consumer to no longer buy a service or product connected to the mark. The court considers things like the strength of the original mark, whether you are using it for some fair use purpose, the similarity, the proximity of the products and marketing channels, whether there’s actual confusion, the defendant’s intent, the quality of respective products, and the sophistication of the customers. (Polaroid Corp. v. Polard Elecs. Corp. 287, F.2d. 492, 495 (2d Cir. 1961.) So what this means is that it'd have to be litigated, but you can argue you are not trying to sell products or services using their mark, but rather you are using it for some other purpose, such as to educate people about their business practices. Best of luck!

Intellectual Property Rights Transfer Agreement
Ohio
Can I transfer the intellectual property rights of a product I developed to another person?
I recently developed a new product and have obtained intellectual property rights for it. However, due to personal circumstances, I am considering transferring these rights to another person. I want to know if it is legally possible to transfer the intellectual property rights of my product to someone else and what the process and implications of such a transfer would be.
Melissa G.
A person that owns the intellectual property rights in a product (i.e., the IP owner) can transfer all rights of ownership to another party. You would need to enter into an Intellectual Property Transfer/Assignment Agreement. This agreement would transfer the intellectual property ownership of the product from you to the other party. This is a permanent transfer and you would not have any further rights to the intellectual property in the product once the agreement was signed.

Intellectual Property Rights Transfer Agreement
Ohio
Can you explain the process and legal requirements for transferring intellectual property rights from one party to another?
I recently started a small software development company with a partner, and we have been working on a project together for the past few months. We have created a unique software algorithm that we believe has significant commercial potential. However, due to personal circumstances, my partner has decided to leave the company and has expressed interest in transferring their intellectual property rights to me. I want to ensure that the transfer is done legally and that I have full ownership and control over the intellectual property moving forward. Can you please explain the process and legal requirements involved in transferring intellectual property rights from one party to another?
Eugene S.
I can do that. I am an IP lawyer over 20 years experience in this area. I work on SAAS and similar agreements daily.
