This book has a ridiculous amount of information. I've almost read the entire book and while I do feel much more knowledgeable about the patent process, I will definitely have to go back and re-read large portions of it. I guess there's just too much for my little brain to absorb. I will probably look for something that explains things in a "10 step process" or something along those lines. This is basically the Bible of patenting and I probably just need the "10 commandments".
"DON'T" PATENT IT YOURSELF
An astounding book with all of Attorney David Pressman's knowledge about Patents in 572 pages. He makes you think twice (and more) about filing pro se, and although not said, he underlines that you need to be a genius to understand the instructions, the rules and the Patent Laws and to follow through successfully.
An excellent resource for guidance when submitting a patent application.
I am a long time buyer and avid of Nolo books, they make the complex vocabulary of the law understandable. I have used Nolo books in the past to buy a house, start a business and write a will as well as countless other documents. Nolo has saved me thousands in legal fees.
This book is a well designed reference for the non lawyer which will allow you to understand legal documents and proceedings. It is sort of like having a translator for a foreign language and less like an instruction book. It is a good reference for those of us who like to be informed before we sign the paperwork.
As an aside, I think I will add this book to my list of "books to bring when called for jury duty". This has a duel purpose, allowing me to understand the legal terms being used and indicating to the lawyers that I will be an informed juror.
Information is power and finding out the plain language meaning of confusing terms will help to make you a more informed individual.
Agreements often go from clean with plain language directly into confusing or ambiguous elements where misunderstandings can occur.
The best policy is to understand what you sign or not sign it until you do. Don't let a confusing or ambiguous statement cost you money or the right to take action when it counts the most.
I actually used this resource to file a first patent application as well as an improvement patent for a battery powered can opener.
Great data! Highly recommended
