Intellectual Property Clause Overview
An intellectual property clause addresses who owns intellectual property, existing IP each party brings to the relationship, and any new IP created during it, along with any licenses granted to use it.
It's essential in development, consulting, employment, and licensing agreements where the output of the work (code, designs, content, inventions) has real value, and ambiguity about ownership can be costly later.
Check whether newly created IP is automatically assigned to one party, common in work-for-hire and employment contexts, or jointly owned, and whether pre-existing IP incorporated into the work is separately licensed rather than transferred.
