We have and of course are engaging a lawyer but we're thinking of first trying to reason with the company owner with a personal letter (or from lawyer, drafted with our input) . Wondering if anyone else has done this.
- DamonHD 11mo agoSomeone I know who is a patent lawyer suggested that if I found myself in this situation asking for more details of the claim, calmly, to determine if it has substance. But depending on the counterparty's motivation that may or may not help. Make sure that you get enough legal advice to avoid digging yourself a deeper hole: you may be wanting to mark such correspondance "WITHOUT PREJUDICE" or similar for example. IANAL and that is not legal advice.
- bityard 11mo agoDo not voluntarily engage them. No matter how well intentioned you think you are, they can probablyfind a way to use it against you. A legal claim demands a legal response, there are no shortcuts here. Your lawyer will advise you further.
- throwawaynvmbr 11mo agoThanks, very clear. Hopefully we'll get it dropped before trial then find some way to counter-sue for harassment and get the fees back.
