: : : i have an idea for something i want to get a patent or see if any body else has already patented the idea. I have a friend who has some ideas he would like to patend.Here is the problem I cannot find any information on how to obtain information on getting a patend, trademark and the laws that pertain to them without handing out a lot of money, that I don't have. I know the US Government will send the information, but I don't know who to write to . So if you could please help me it would be greatly appreciated. He is sitting in a county prision and I think the world of him, so I try to do what I can. Thank you Lynda Pelizari

Dear Ms. Pelizari,

It is usually a BIG waste of time money and worry to try to get a patent.

You have to start with the idea and see what can be done with it. Usually you have to be able to use it yourself.

Patents are very expensive. Even good ones may not make money.
