    Need help Copyrighting Music Samples. Not Looking for a regular Attorney.Need a Person that Knows the Bussines.Make your bid if you can work with me.

    We currently have goods manufactured in China, the manufacturing company has patents on the goods they manufacture in China, we wish to register one or two of their patents in the following countries that operate a 12 month grace period (12 months prior to filing will not be regarded as citeable prior art) from publication of the original patent. (a utility patent would be acceptable)I believe an assignment document may be required? Or some form of licensing agreement with the originator, if so such an agreement/assignment would need to be drawn up and would be done with the cooperation of the original patent registrant; the application for patents has to be completed before 24th June 2010 otherwise we will be outside our grace period. We need to know the estimated cost for drawing up the above so there is an agreement between us and the manufacturer allowing us to register their patents with their agreement and for us both to benefit from this, also we need to know submission costs to the various patents registration authorities in the following countries, or would a PCT be applicable here.?

    I need a lawyer to write a letter to someone I've recently done business with. They are trying to not pay me, and have given me ridiculous reasons as to why the payment was 'declined', even though they initially tried acting like it was my bank's fault for not receiving the wires. I'm willing to pay an experienced legal lawyer to write the appropriate letter explaining what has happened and if cooperation is not met then legal action will be pursued, and also the chance of legal charges being filed against them for different thefts and other legal disruptions. PLEASE DO NOT BID IF YOU DON'T KNOW LEGAL VERBATIM AND HOW TO CORRECTLY CONSTRUCT A LETTER OF THIS SORT. I have had this done for me before, and I know what they look like. I'd rather a professional lawyer write this rather than myself, but if needed I will goto my personal lawyer.Thanks.
