As a Franchise Attorney I can say this. You need to sit down with a good intellectual property (IP) attorney and go over your entire plan. An idea can only be protected by patent law, but there are also copyright and trademark legal issues to consider Consult with a good intellectual property or franchise attorney in your area for a review and for specific advice.
