Replied last October 11, 2024Its very unfortunate that you were not satisfied with an experience you had with another company. However, its not ok to leave an inaccurate review for me because you were dissatisfied with the other company. To this end, your review is completely false as it relates to the services provided to you by my firm. I drafted and prosecuted a utility and design patent application for you and you were actually granted a patent for your design patent application. I certainly never received $26,000 from you. I also have spoken with you several times regarding this matter. However, as I have contended previously, I can only speak about what you engaged my firm for and nothing else. I performed the services I was engaged to perform. I have no knowledge about anything else. Please take this fight up with the proper parties.
