So, I'm in the middle of a trademark dispute right now. We've filed an opposal, gotten a response full of lies.
Now, we're on to the interrogatory phase.
Instead of having the lawyer write up a series of questions for the other party to answer, I wrote them up myself - because he doesn't know the pertinent questions to ask.... He reworded them to "legalese" at a cost of over $1000...apparently, it took him six hours to read 30 questions and add a few words sch as "please define" to each question.
He also wanted examples of "confusion" from customers over the use of two people using the same mark.
I forwarded two emails from two different people asking if I was the other party...
The cost for my leech to read those two emails and do whatever he does with them?
$650. :eek At $250/hour, either this guy reads REALLY SLOW or he's milking me for all I'm worth.
A two minute phone call to let him know he's misspelled my name in the document is $36. The cost of him correcting his mistakes? Don't wanna know...
Bloodsucker.
