  Many people think that they can protect their ideas. Unfortunately, this is a misconception - there is no way to protect an idea. Copyrights protect expression and patents protect inventions, but neither protects ideas. Fortunately people can find out How to use patents effectively to protect your intellectual property. Simply go to Intellectual Pats.
  
  Filing a patent is a very comprehensive 13 step procedure that can be very risky when undertaken by individuals that do not possess the necessary expertise. Intellectual Pats is a legal representative offering comprehensive patent services thereby taking the risk off of the inventor's shoulders and alleviating the chances of any catastrophic mistakes being made in the application process.
  
  It is critical that inventors develop strategies that protect their rights and business once they have identified their intellectual property. Do not talk about the idea or make intellectual property public prior to taking action to protect it. If it is already being used or marketed by someone else for one year prior to submitting an application for a patent it won't be possible to obtain a patent.
  
  Record the intellectual property or invention as soon as possible. In the U.S. patents are granted to the first person to invent not the first to apply. Proof is provided by writing up a detailed description of the idea; dating and signing it; and having a witness sign it.
  
  
  
  Do a patent search. Just because the invention isn't on the shelves of the local stores doesn't mean it hasn't already been patented or marketed by someone else. Intellectual Pats will do a Prior Art Search comparing the invention with existing prior inventions. This can tell inventors if they're qualified for a patent. If the idea is patentable this information will allow Intellectual Pats to adjust the application making it stronger and more competitive. This will save inventors a lot of money in the event their idea is not patentable
  
  If the idea is patentable inventors may want to do additional market research before applying - what is the cost of making the invention? Is there any competitor selling a similar product? Attorney's at Intellectual Pat will help inventors with recommendations.
  
  Choose the right type of patent application. Intellectual Pats will help inventors choose the right application based on what their idea is and what type of protection they may need.
  
  Wait for a decision. It can take 1 to 5 years for a patent application to be processed. In the meantime inventors can use the phrase "Patent Pending" on their invention.
  
  At Intellectual Pats, once an application is approved they will help inventors with strategies to help them make money. If the application is not approved they will assist inventors with the appeal process.
