Shawn, I've always believed in the saying, "You get what you pay for." When you can't afford to pay for assistance, you shouldn't expect much. At the same time, you don't always have a choice. For instance, if you need a haircut, you can pay for a barber, you can go to a barber school, or you can cut it on your own.  Patents work the same way. If you can't pay for it, you can do it on your own (search "patents" and "DIY" on Amazon). You could also try patent school. Here is a listing of schools that offer IP clinics. http://www.uspto.gov/ip/boards/oed/practitioner/agents/law_school_pilot.jsp You want to select one that offers a patent clinic (trademarks won't help you) and hopefully one of them can help you. Good luck, Todd
