Week 5 Reading Reflection

1) What was the biggest surprise for you in the reading? In other words, what did you read that stood out the most as different from your expectations? 

The biggest surprise to me is the amounts of steps and things that go into the process. The amount you have to pre look at and look at during the process and after.

2) Identify at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you.

Obviously one very confusing thing if you’ve never done it is patent process for obtaining one. It’s just a lot of different things to take into account.

3) If you were able to ask two questions to the author, what would you ask? Why?

When it comes to copyright and patents would you recommend going through a company who specializes in this or do it alone or with other people in your company?

When and what did the RULPA start for?

4) Was there anything you think the author was wrong about? Where do you disagree with what she or he said? How?

The trademark pitfalls seem to be wrong. I wouldn’t necessarily trust my attorney without doing my own research or staying away from abbreviations.
