Florida Design Magazine BEWARE!! Owner Jeff Lichtenstein Failure To Pay Employee Final Pay Boca Raton Florida
Because Jeff Lichtenstein was violently angry that I would not sign a non-compete agreement when resigning, he still has not paid me final monies owed including expenses I incurred for the company. He had me meet him at the Embassy Suites next door to his office and threatened to give me a bad reference if I did not sign a non-compete agreement. In the 4 years I was employed there, I had not signed a non-compete agreement. He became evil and violent when I informed him I cannot sign an agreement that puts me out of work for 2 years and covers the entire US as well as 70 countries. At that point, he also chose to not pay me for wages owed. This is crooked and beware in dealing with this man.

It is very difficult to accept this report on Jeff to be true, in fact, Jeff Lichtenstein was the best employer I have ever worked for, so much so I am seeking to be rehired by him. Jeff in my opinion demonstrated to be an extremely hard working individual, cares for his company and makes the best decisions for Florida Design magazines and his staff. I will say this, during my employment at FD, Jeff was as a kind , and I employer and I believe his kindness has been interpreted as a weakness. I also believe the report on him by this individual is merely an attack on credibility and workmanship.
I have to agree with you Jeff, if anyone will make such accusations the least they can do is identify themselves!
Best wishes, from Florida Design Magazines past employee,

FLORIDA DESIGN MAGAZINE & JEFF LICHTENSTEIN CLAIMS "Anonymous" MADE A FALSE REPORT
#4REBUTTAL Owner of company

The above allegations about Florida Design and Jeff Lichtenstein written by Anonymous are false. The fact that they wrote under an Anonymous name says it all.
Anonymous couldnt write their name because they know it would be defamation of character. So why would someone do this? I can only speculate that it is possibly someone who was let go from the company and is angry and seeking retaliation. Our company for over a decade has not had a lawsuit filed against it nor have there been any violent acts, charges or reports of such filed.
We hope Ripoff Reports considers changing its policy by not allowing individuals to write in anonymous complaints because considerable damage could be done to innocent people who may be victimized by false accusations made by unstable individuals. There is no way for an innocent person to defend himself by a defamatory statement when it is written anonymously.
