Okrand already has stated that he created Klingon as a "work-for-hire," and that he doesn't own it.
When you create something as a work-for-hire, the people paying you to create it own what you create, unless a contract states otherwise.
If Okrand's contract had stated otherwise, I think he would've shared that important piece of information. Instead, he said that while he got authorship of the Klingon dictionary, the copyright of the book itself was by Paramount.
