I am a little confused about the laws of patent in the UK and Scotland. for example; How would using the equipment of others, e.g. a company effect applying for a patent? If I was to tell someone about my invention and they filed for a patent, what would happen?- would it be my fault, could I sue? Also, if a company made my invention without my permission, what would happen?

Are Scottish/UK Patent Laws a lot different from US ones?
