Intellectual property can be loaned out.
Intellectual property is treated as an asset that can be sold, bought, licensed, or even given away free.
Just like any other product of value, intellectual property is desired and sought by others. In Tennessee intellectual property theft has grown drastically over the last decade and is responsible for massive economic losses of many citizens, while Tennessee intellectual property lawyers are fighting to protect your copyrights.
