How can I buy someone’s patent?
To obtain all rights
to another’s patent, you can have
them assign the patent to you for a negotiated price. This requires the
patent holder to prepare a formal assignment and then file that assignment with
the PTO. The formal
paperwork for the patent will then indicate that the patent has been assigned
to you and once the patent has been formally assigned, you will have all the
rights that the original patent holder used to have (that is, you can prevent
others from making the invention, selling the invention, etc.).
