All businesses must comply with applicable laws. Suppose the therapists in a small speech therapy agency develop a specific method of training nonverbal children to communicate.

The rival agency has likely broken intellectual property law. This law protects the rights of individuals and businesses over their creations and innovations, including methods, processes, and techniques used in fields such as therapy and education. By using and claiming credit for the speech therapy agency's assistive communication method without permission, the rival agency may be infringing on the original agency's intellectual property rights.
