I will draft a US employee invention assignment and confidentiality agreement
Protecting Your Innovation with Licensed US Legal Expertise
About this Gig
Every employee you hire is a potential risk to your IP. A Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement (PIIA) is the most critical document in your HR folder.
I will draft a professional US Employee Invention Assignment and Confidentiality Agreement to ensure everything your staff creates belongs to you.
What's Included:
- Automatic assignment of all future inventions
- Protection of company trade secrets and data
- Disclosure of prior inventions (to avoid overlap)
- Post-termination obligations
I ensure your agreement complies with state-specific labor laws (like California's Labor Code 2870) to ensure maximum enforceability.
Requirements: 1. Company name. 2. Employee role. 3. State of employment. 4. Any specific restrictive covenants needed.
