Offering Equity Position to an Intellectual Prop. Lawyer

That sounds like a great strategy. I’m now thinking of the actual human interaction that needs to be executed to get me from point A (today) to point B (a safe non-provisional patent holding, at minimal cost). I have a pitch together for investors and am in the process of tweaking it into a ptich for an IP lawye, but…

Any advice on making sure I safely get from point A to point B, as far as not having one of the Firm’s mail boys run off with my idea, etc.? As I said, I have a relatively well written provisional patent that should give me some protection to approach these people, but is there any other tips you guys can think of? Maybe for negotiating, or for whom to speak to and whom to not speak to? or any other relevant issue?
