Will I be all set to go after my patent?
If I obtain a patent on my invention, does that mean I have the right to make, use and sell my invention?
Answered By: Nelson & Lawless
Of course. However, you do not need a patent to make, use and sell your invention. You need a patent to obtain the right to protect it from any infringement and competition.
