With inventions I have found the greatest threat is legal action from your own investor trying to steal your idea, especially when they know you have no money. Is it unusual to ask an investor to put money up in an 'escrow' type account to use as a patent legal defense fund even against your own investor? I'm trying to fund both my patent and the defense of it in court before cash flow starts from the product.

According to the law, the invention belongs to the employer that financed an employee to make it because the idea comes from the former. If the invention was already made by a person but solicited money from an investor to make it commercially, the invention belongs to the maker. Thus, you own the invention and prove that you only sought help from the investor.
