Gennady Savinov

This was an adventure!I advise you to read, this can help you avoid problems with the law.Because freelancer Gennady Savinov (https://freelancehunt.com/freelancer/gennadysavinov.html), in my opinion, violates intellectual property rights and tries to sell not unique logos that he has already sold to someone else.Gennady made a logo.We remained unsatisfied with the quality, we offered the mould let you leave yourself 30%, and we just close the project.Gennady said he does not accept the claims and wants the whole amount of 3k hryvnia.They started an arbitration and decided to look closer.And wow!Initially, in the arbitration, Gennady demanded the whole amount for work.But it turned out that at least two logos made supposedly for us were already made by Gennady for others (Exomlab and Rocket) - for 9000 and 18000 rupees respectively.And the second straight one in one is not scary that we have lawyers, and the Rocket - delivery.He didn’t warn us that these are already made logos, that is, they were presented as unique.We pointed out that the logo belongs to someone and that the artist is trying to simply cheat us.Gennady started a little hysteric.He said that the rights to these logos belong to him and proposed to return 50% of the payment.We refused, it was already a matter of principle, and we didn’t want the executive to hurt other customers.We answered that next to the logo stands the sign “R” and according to the legislation of Ukraine, the United States and many other countries, this sign is used for registered signs on which the certificates have been obtained.They proposed to Gennady to give them, he did not do it, again a little began to extinguish.But he proposed to return all the money, probably understood the regret of the situation.What would it threaten us?Imagine that we began to use the Gennady logo.Then the owner of those logos appeared and submitted a claim to us.He would say, well you have seen that Gennady has these logos in the portfolio and there are the signs “R”, that is, they belong to us.And they brought lawsuits to the court, claims to the police, accounts for lawyers, and so on.The class!We told Freelancer that this is unacceptable and we will use all the legal methods until the appeal to the court and the appeal to the police.We also asked Freelancer what steps they would take to prevent such actions in the future.They said we can't do anything, but you can leave a review)))
