Go speak to a patent attorney who is registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. If you go to www.uspto.gov (the ONLY official site of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office) you can search for attorneys registered in your area. Some may even offer a free initial consultation, and you can rest assured that a legitimate attorney isn't going to risk losing their license to cheat you or steal your idea. I happen to work for an IP attorney, and can honestly say he's never cheated anyone he's done work for.

Securing a Patent?

So you've discovered the next best thing since sliced bread. You've invented a product that millions will use and enjoy. How do you stop someone from stealing and profiting from your idea? You need to get a patent. There are many companies that offer invention patenting. Sorting through the maze of patents can be daunting, but with guidance, your product will be ready to be enjoyed by millions in no time.So what is a patent? A patent is a promise from the USPatent Office that guarantees that you are the original owner and inventor of a product and no other person can profit from it without your permission. WIthout a patent, your product can be duplicated by any person who wants to profit from it. The first step in securing your new idea and keeping it from being copied is to apply for a patent.In order to qualify for a patent, your invention must meet certain criteria. First, it must be a novel, or new idea. If your idea, or one remarkably similar to it, has been circulating in commerce for some time it may not be eligible for your new patent. Your invention must be a completely new invention or an improvement on an existing invention. Many people have found ways to improve on an exisisting product and earn a patent.The second criteria for obtaining a patent is called nonobviousness. This is a little more difficult to quanitfy, but can be described as something that is not obvious to someone who is skilled in your subject area. Is this something that all artists know about anyway? Or is it completely new? You can't just make an exisiting product larger or a different color and apply for a patent, for example.The third criteria for invention patenting is usefulness. Is your product useful to those who will need it? Unless it is a toy or some other non-essential item, it has to serve some use to the audience that would purchase it. That means that if you invent a machine, it has to work in order for it to be considered useful.Finding a patent for your idea or product is not difficult. Although the process can be long and tedious, you can rest assured that with your patent, you are protected from those who wish to steal and profit from your efforts.

What information and details do I need to have in order to apply for a patent on a device I developed?

You need to know whether your invention is original before applying for a patent on a device you developed. You can read more at www.freepatentsonline.com/6216379.html All information needed can be found on the US Patent and Trademark Office's website, http://www.uspto.gov/. There are forms you must sign and fill out, and a small adminsitrative fee for processing your patent. It is highly advised that you seek the help of a registered patent attorney or patent agent prior to filing your own patent application. Patent drafting is a highly complex process, with the smallest errors or omissions resulting is a patent that is worthless from a protection standpoint. That being said, the information I request of every client applying for a patent is as follows: Background of invention information needed: 1) What is the present problem? 2) How have others tried to solve the problem? Why is that not satisfactory? 3) What have you done that is better than what is out there? Written descr
