Hypothetical question

Honestly, i've been trying to resolve this on my own but I'm stuck.

reverse engineering software. I've been dealing with this for about 4 weeks now and teh situation isn't improving.

This involves software/code I developed over the past 35 months. I do not have documentation proving my ownership and timeline.

Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?

Illustrative response

I've dealt with this before.

Most folks screw this up by is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.

Illustrative response

Not gonna lie, been there. Here's what I learned.

The trap most people fall into is hiring an attorney to send teh initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process instead 🤷.

Illustrative response

Have you tried reaching out to your state's legal aid society? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services just saying.

Illustrative response

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

A lot of people mess up by is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.

Illustrative response

You could try handling it yourself but honestly a lawyer speeds things up 10x.
