Patent Assignment
Question: Hello, Can you tell me how to transfer US patent ownership? (I currently own the patent and want to transfer
ownership to someone else.) Can I do it myself? What forms do I need? Thank you.
Answer: To trasfer ownership you can file an assignment. I believe the USPTO has a form for filing an assignment.
Check the website at www.uspto.gov.
Alternatively you can license the patent to the other person or entity. A license is basically a contract and therefore,
you should consult an attorney if you are going to use this route. There are two basic forms of licensing, exclusive and
nonexclusive. Under an exclusive license, the licensee gets the exclusive use of the patent subject matter. Under a
nonexclusive license agreement, the licensor can license the patent to any number of licensees. The decision whether
to go with an exclusive or nonexcusive license is a business decision which should be carefully weighed after consulting
with an attorney.
