This depends on the facts and circumstances. Generally, a bald idea is not protectable anyway. Further, if you as an employee offer up an idea or create something within the scope of your employment it usually becomes your employers by operation of law.

If you would like to discuss further over a free phone consult, feel free to contact me anytime that is convenient.

Kind regards,
