You will need to contact the assignee, Luxe Link, LLC, and see if they are interested in licensing to you. I suggest that you contact an intellectual property attorney, who can help you with a licensing agreement.

Your question doesn't mention a patent number, but U.S. patents typically show "Attorney, Agent, or Firm" on the front page of each patent. Depending on how the attorney or firm fills out the issue fee paperwork, a U.S. patent might list only the firm name, or only the attorney, or... Read more »

I see that what you quoted has more than one period. It looks like you are quoting the abstract. That is not what you need to look at. You need to have a patent attorney review the issued claims and see what they require.

After several emails, reviews, and conversations they said that they were not interested,
Today I went to Home Depot and in the paint brush department, Wooster has a paint brush with my design that I submitted to them ,I think they stole my patented design.
Well, if a company stole your patented product, then you should be able to sue them. Talk to the patent attorney who got you your patent to recommend a litigator.
Good luck!

The widow of another co-inventor has had her name added to the list of inventors. Can I do this?
You need a consultation with a good "intellectual property" attorney. You can search the internet for one in your area or you can contact the local bar association for a referral to one. This question cannot be answered without a review of all the relevant documents, particularly the... Read more »

Google Patents notes that your patent expired in 2006 for failure to pay a maintenance fee. You may want to discuss this with your patent attorney. There are ways to pay for an unintentional failure to pay a maintenance fee to revive a patent that lapsed for failure to pay the... Read more »
He is only 17 and these ladies called cops but took my son to jail.
more info needed.
he will be sent to juvenile court and there he should ask for a public defender or you can hire a private lawyer who practices in your area.
have him prepare a detailed summary ahead of time as lawyers time is expensive.

I've looked over the patent and the Jasonwell Play Mat, and am available to discuss it. Please reach out to me.
Thank you for your answer, Peter. The intend is to combine several existing products in order to create a single product for a completely different purpose. If I understand you correctly, it will likely be a patentable product in which case I will seek a further consultation with a patent attorney.... Read more »
Generally, no. Combining several products according to known methods to yield predictable results is not patentable.
But, if your new product is better then would be just a combination of existing products, then the new product may be patentable.

It is possible, but likely that you would need to obtain NBC legal approval. I recall that "Land Shark" halloween costumes have been made. That image and art is an NBC property.
With the right incentive, a deal could be crafted.
There is a company out there already producing the game. However, cutting 3 holes in a piece of wood and using a sand wedge to hit balls in the holes is not reinventing the wheel.

This is a pretty specific legal question that you will need to actually hire a patent attorney. Sorry.

You would license the patent from the patent owner. The patent owner may or may not let you license it.
One alternative to licensing the patent is to see if your product indeed infringes the patent in question.

For example, I currently sell a Spray Bottle, however, I didn't invent it. If there's no patent on the item, could I file for one? Or would I have to change something about it? If so, is there a way to something about the product to file my own patent for it?
Patents are intended in reward inventors. If you did not invent the product, you cannot patent it.
You may be able to patent an improvement to the product as long as whatever you do is not obvious to someone that designs spray bottles. But you would need to invent this or pay someone to... Read more »
