DON'T File a Patent!

DON'T File a Patent! is the first book of its kind to educate anyone who has had an idea for an invention on the types of U.S. Patents (i.e. Utility, Design and Plant), what patents do (give the inventor the right to sue), what they don't do and how U.S. Utility Patents are really worthless pieces of paper that cost many tens of thousands of dollars and offer little if any protection to inventors. U.S. Utility Patents are not self enforcing; If a patented inventor is being knocked off, it is up to the inventor to file lawsuits to protect his invention; The USPTO does nothing. However, the average Patent Infringement lawsuit costs $2 million or more. What inventor has that kind of money?

DON'T File a Patent! is two valuable books in one. Part I has 10 Reasons NOT to file a Patent on an invention. These 10 reasons have all been vetted by Patent Attorneys. In fact, the foreword of the book is written by Patent Attorney Patrick Anderson. Part II of the book has Tips and Strategies to encourage inventors to manufacture and sell their product themselves.
