Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.
NFT of someone else's art. I've been dealing with this for about 16 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.
This involves software/code I developed over the past 33 months. I do not have documentation proving my ownership and timeline.
Should I hire a lawyer for this or try to handle it myself?
I've dealt with this before.
What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.
Fwiw nAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. Your mileage may vary depending on the specifics.
NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. Your mileage may vary depending on the specifics 🤷.
Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.
Don't make the same mistake I did -- is hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process instead.
Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.
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.
+1 to this. Professional advice made all the difference for me.
