Margot:

You need a Patent Attorney, also known as an Intellectual Property  
Attorney. There are several well-established firms in Springfield, eg:

http://hblaw.org/firmprofile.epl

http://www.ogklaw.com/services/

Also an individual in Lee that I've worked with -- Malcolm Chisholm  http://www.mjcpatents.com/

There is also a local group call Innovator's Resource Network --  http://www.irnetwork.org/ 
  -- that meets monthly where you can safely share your idea and get  
feedback.

The very first thing you (or they) should do is search the USPTO.gov  
database to see if anyone else has already invented your idea or  
something very similar to it.

Good luck :-)

Greg
