Re: patent help!!!PLEASE!!!

Patents are difficult to obtain due to what is referred to as prior art. If you think your idea is totally new, and with merit, it may be patentable once it has been designed and made workable.

If you would like to discuss this further please call my office at your earliest convenience.
