newbie_driver_2024 OP

Has anyone dealt with something like this? I'm not sure what my options are.

3D printing patented designs. I've been dealing with this for about 7 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

This involves original creative work over the past 22 months. I do have documentation proving my ownership and timeline.

What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?

Have you tried reaching out to your state's bar association? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.

I've handled similar cases. Here's my take on the legal issues.

The legal framework here involves both federal and state law. At the federal level, the Lanham Act. Your state may provide additional protections.

Before taking legal action, consider sending a formal demand letter. In many cases, this alone resolves the issue.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.
