How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Review an Invention Assignment Agreement in New Jersey

In 2024, an individual in New Jersey sought assistance with the review of an invention assignment agreement currently in effect with their employer. The client aimed to understand whether specific sections of the agreement would restrict their ability to create inventions for personal monetization or for prospective employment. They requested a thorough examination of three particular sections to ascertain their enforceability under New Jersey law and to evaluate the extent to which each section might inhibit future creative endeavors. As a result, the client received 10 proposals from qualified attorneys, with flat fee bids ranging from $300 to $999, all submitted to meet the requested deadline of one week.
