Excellent advice - there are also patent AGENTS that do a good job at a lower cost - find one that specializes in your field.

Absolutely! We wrote about why you should consider working with a patent agent here: www.inc.com/stephen-key/should-you-hire-a-patent-agent-instead-of-a-patent-attorney.html.
Is it safe to go with a pro bono patent attorney? and if so, do the same rules apply or there are more concerns that need to be addressed?
This is my favorite video by far. What should I say if I call a attorney and he asks me to describe in 1 sentence what is it about? I have not even signed an NDA. I asked him to send me a nda AFTER I described in one sentence vaguely what it is. Now I feel uneasy because I feel that he may figure out what is on my mind. I feel violated, for lack of better word. Is it ok to disclose vaguely this way or did I just made a common mistake of newbie inventors? was the agent honest or is that a professional way to ask me?

He asked for your one-sentence benefit statement, the entire point of which is to be shared at a moment's notice and widely! Sounds like he was doing his job.

inventRightTV Thanks! If I then get him to sign a mutual NDA, does the NDA cover disclosure after the NDA and not what I disclosed before the NDA?

Tell me about "USPTO joboptions" and give me a tutorial on that my guy. I challenge u. I challenge u. Because i need help. I wrote my specs. I got my black and white pics. I know the efiling process, from second hand excperince watching videos. The USPTO joboptions helps people create their PDF file up to USPTO standards. But even with online readable instructions. It just doesnt work for me.
