Drafting a patent application yourself is generally a very bad idea, unless you happen to be a patent lawyer. Patent law is very complex and you have to meet all the requirements of the law at the time you file the application for you to have a valid patent issue from that application. That includes a nonprovisional application that claims priority to a provisional patent application. I am a registered patent attorney and I generally find that it is less expensive to start from scratch than to "revise" an application drafted by a non-patent lawyer. Good luck in finding a registered patent attorney or agent who is willing to do this.
