“Layer Name Here” was hired to challenge a patent pending application. He requested the payment upfront which I provided. After 6 months he has not done the job even though he stated up front, it was a straight forward issue. Every communication we’ve had was initiated by me. Each time I reached out to him his only response was he can’t find the application number but they are working on it. He just keeps telling me they are exhausting all efforts to do the work although after 7 weeks I haven’t seen an itemized statement he promised me. I frankly feel he has dropped the ball. He got his money so he is done. I have filed a grievance with the state bar and would like him to return my money.
