There is one approach that is best of all. File a provisional patent application (as little as $110). In many cases you can file it yourself. Use a book like From Patent to Profit or The Patent Writer. Or use the software Patent Wizard, which is very inexpensive at www.frompatenttoprofit.com. A provisional patent application gives you legal patent pending rights and may preserve worldwide filing rights providing your invention was not publicly disclosed prior to filing the application. During that year, you can try to commercialize your invention and see if you can make money on it. Spend the $5-10,000 on marketing and making money instead wasting it on legal fees on an innovation that may not sell.
