I just submitted a email to Mr. Oscar Michelen's law firm inquiring about the demand letter program, but I am curious about my unique situation.
I received permission from a large corporation to copy the content of a few of their web site pages on my personal web page pertaining to a topic I was educating my customers on. Obviously some of the Getty images were on those pages and I had referenced them and displayed them on my site, but they were not hosted on my site. I was told by Getty that it does not matter who was hosting them because they were displayed on my site. Does anyone have any experience with this?
They have now started with the demand letters from McCormack and the demand amount has increased by about $1,500 since it started.
They are claiming that if I do not respond that they will file litigation without notice. I've never felt so bullied in my life.
Thoughts?
