I had a invention and wanted my dream of seeing it to the market a reality. My sister and I met with a representative in the Sharonville, Ohio office, John Smith. He raved about how many people ISC has help and the number of new ideas they assisted to the market.
We took advantage if the patent availability search and waited for 9 weeks. After this time elapsed, we received a letter from ISC stating that we were eligible for an utility patent.
Later, we were offered a package that consisted of a patent attorney and marketing to companies. About every 3rd month, ISC sent us a list of companies they sent our idea to. My sister took the liberty of calling one of the companies on the list. She was shocked with what she heard. A representative of one, said that when they received mail from ISC, they trash it. He later went on to say the had not crediblity.
This is not all the attorney that was working on our patent allowed our application to go into "Abandoment" status. He did not respond to the inquires from the USPTO. My sister called to check on the patent and the rep stated that the atty has not responded to them.
I feel robbed and there should be restitution. At least the attorney the received pay for goods and did not make good of services should be held responsible.
If some experienced a similar incident, contact me.
