Wacky Patents w/ Alan Hale Esq.

Sunday, February 5th, 2012

On today’s KTLK show we are speaking with Alan Hale our resident patent expert from the law firm of Knobbe Martens in Irvine, CA.  A patent is generally described as a grant made by a government that confers upon the creator of an invention the sole right to make, use, and sell that invention for a set period of time. The problem is that the  U.S. Government doesn’t always get things right, as you may know. These inventors probably all had the right to seek patent protection but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t punch them in the face if you ever get a chance, except the Unicorn guy. Let’s start with him.
