What is intellectual property?
Intellectual property generally refers to patents, copyrights, trademarks, service marks, and trade secrets. The value of such assets is often manifested through some aspect of a business's goodwill. Texas intellectual property law protects the creative works of authors, composers, designers, inventors and entrepreneurs from piracy. Violating the rights of an intellectual property owner is a form of unfair competition and may be remedied through the courts. Such relief may take the form of an award of damages, injunctive relief, or both.
