Description
About the Inventors Assistance League
The Inventors Assistance League (IAL) and other non-profit organizations exist because our founder and President, Ted De Boer, a registered patent agent with the U.S. Patent, Trademark & Copyright Office, was fed up with the public's lack of affordable legal information and advice in the area of inventions, ideas and innovations. After many years of research with Fortune 100 companies, Mr. De Boer developed a self-help program that is understandable, easy-to-use and authoritative for the amateur and professional inventor. The program has undergone many changes and refinements over the years, but the purpose has never changed: to take the mystery out of the patent, trademark and copyright law and to make it available to everyone in a manner that is easy to understand and easy to implement.
About five counselors work in the old Central Storage Building in Glendale, California. We regularly update our On-site Program and our Home Study Learning Program, because the laws change constantly, and we work to keep our products up to date. We encourage our members to suggest ideas for improvement, which we can incorporate into new editions of our products.
Patent, trademark and copyright lawyers sometimes compare self-help law to do-it-yourself brain surgery. Nonsense, it's much more akin to choosing an over-the-counter remedy for a routine illness. Whether they want to relieve a headache, file for a copyright, trademark or patent, obtain Pre-Patent protection or learn how to market their ideas, inventions and innovations in a controlled environment, people can do much of the work themselves if they have good, reliable information.
