[2 of 2]: I finally sent them a demand letter 2+ weeks ago stating that I wanted to leave the service & asking for my patient & billing data back. They haven't responded to it despite requests from me and from my attorney. My attorney says the next step is to file a lawsuit against them. I don't want to do that to a startup, but they are holding my patient data hostage in their system and refusing to respond to the demand letter. Without that data, my ability to do business is in jeopardy. Any suggestions on what I should do? I badly need my data back.
- glimcat 13y ago1. Ask nicely. 2. Ask via lawyer. 3. Ask via judge. It sounds like you've already tried the first two options.
- Dirlewanger 13y agoIf what you've said is all true, and you've thoroughly gone over with your attorney all of the grievances and have enough data to back it up, and they have yet to respond within a reasonable timeframe through a legal channel, then go for their jugular and take them out. Don't relent on these types of offenses, doubly so if they are a start-up. Without knowing too much about the founders, say this kind of activity goes unchecked, and continues rampant within their business despite still being successful. That could potentially send signals to departing entrepreneurs that this kind of behavior is OK and that they could very well get away with it as well. Go for the kill.
