Complaint Review: Davison

I was contacted by Davison Corp./Mark Smith in September 2004. October 2004 I submitted written designs for a rubber insole to be worn with trendy, strappy shoes or put in pantyhoes. I requested to him to contact Dr.Scholls on the design/improvement, they then requested $685 to be sent to them after they priority mailed me a contract for the insole and a craft light(that runs on a rechargable battery).

The insole is now being advertised in Glamour magazine(May 2006) by Dr. Scholls which states that it can be worn with strappy shoes. After speaking to Mark Smith a number of times i requested a contingency program for my designs. He said that they wouldn't be able to do that and would hold onto my designs until i had the funds. I spoke to a patent attorney in October 2004 because of the peculilar nature of Davison and the state of Virgina Patent office.

I havent been contacted since October 14, 2004 and i am curious to know if Davison submitted my idea to Dr.Scholls/Schering-Plough Healthcare. The copyright date on the product is 2006.
