How To Apply For A Patent

How do I apply for a patent?

To apply for a patent, you first seek a patent attorney. You consult with him, and he may do a search or he may not. It's not mandatory but it is recommended. From there he'll advise you whether or not a patent has already been obtained for it. Thereafter he drafts the patent application. You disclose for him what the invention is and he'll draft the application, the body of the application, the claims and obtain drawings. You pay the fee and the patent is filed.
