In this episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, Tyson Franklin interviews Stan Gibson, a seasoned trial attorney from Jeffer Mangels Butler & Mitchell in Los Angeles. The conversation centres on the importance of protecting and monetising intellectual property for podiatrists and healthcare professionals. They discuss common pitfalls, like relying on internet resources for legal protections, and emphasise the value of consulting with experienced professionals. They also explore various aspects of intellectual property, such as patents, trade secrets, and the implications of legal documentation. Stan shares his experience in helping medical innovators secure their ideas, including a $570 million success story of a doctor who revolutionised spinal fusion surgery. The discussion also touches upon the cost and complexities of obtaining patents, with practical advice for health professionals to protect their innovative concepts.
