The rival agency has broken intellectual property law. This area of law protects the rights of creators and inventors, including their inventions, designs, and trademarks. If the original therapy method developed by the small speech therapy agency is unique and has not been patented or otherwise protected, the rival agency's unauthorized use and claim to credit for it would constitute a violation of intellectual property rights.

therapy agency develop a specific method of training nonverbal children to communicate. Within
six months, the director is given information indicating that a rival agency is now using and
claiming credit for their assistive communication method. What law has the rival agency
broken?
