so, any advice on what should I do tomorrow morning regarding this company? We provided them some samples of what their site would look like but then they said 'they were not ready to move forward' and never got back to us. Three months later I check their site and it is a complete rip of our concept. I am pissed! Do I have any rights on this? What are my legal alternatives in order to either get paid or have them bring down the site and come up with their own design?
- wow. that takes a lot of nerve._salisae_
- Tell me about it, the scumbag (CEO) disconnected the number he gave me a while back.OSFA
- I'm sorry that sucks. I'm not sure there's a legal way of protecting comps and samples? How would that work in a contest e.g.? comps=risk?Corvo
- ... contest? There's a risk in every proposal. I don't know how you can avoid it.Corvo
- a Cease & Desist contract would work but that'd be crazy coz no rational client would compromise with a comp.Corvo
- unless they would sign it after comp approval - with a cease an desist option on their part. which would need contract too.Corvo
- a snowball of contract and failing guarantees.Corvo
