HEY!.. THAT WAS MY IDEA!..
A patent can typically cost $10,000. Make sure your idea is something that you can produce and sell before getting the patent.You can save some money by getting a provisional patent (costs less, but doesn t get you coverage immediately).Go look up Attorney, Patent in your phone book. Whatever you do, don t contact an invention development company (the types that advertise on TV). They just want to take your money and not give you good protection. Talk to the patent attorney. They should be able to tell you the cost of getting the provisional patent and give you advice on what to do for free.
