The FDA has approved the pill, but BlueMountain never thought about patenting the pill. BlueMountain has decided to rebrand itself when it rolls out the new invention to the public in two months. It will be releasing a new company logo and marketing materials along with the launch. The client is very excited about its new invention, and is worried about protecting its intellectual property to ensure maximum profitability. Legal memorandum to the client on behalf of your attorney, explaining the following:
- The process of filing a patent for the client's new invention, cellulox, and why protection is needed
