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

software patent eligibility after Alice. I've been dealing with this for about 9 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already consulted briefly with a lawyer but got conflicting advice.

Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?

NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. Caveat: I'm not your lawyer and this isn't legal advice lol

NAL, but from what I've read, you should check your state's specific laws. Obviously I don't know all the details of your situation though.

This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. Of course the details matter a lot here.

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.
