Can I pass on my intellectual property after I die?
Intellectual property (IP) is an important way Iowa authors, business owners, artists and inventors generate their income. In fact, IP may even provide a living for relatives of an intellectual property owner, which is why if you own a copyright, a patent or any IP, you should include it in your estate plan. You can choose who you want to receive your intellectual property rights so that your heirs can profit from the IP.
