So I have a great idea for a new container of a current product. The problem is I can't get a provional patent for a design so how do i go about protecting it? I have looked at one of the companies that I would pitch the idea to and they have some jargan about how I can pitch the idea and they may already be working on the same idea and I am SOL. Is there a way to protect myself? Do I just try adn get them to sign something before we talk about it?
