American Inventor Services, LLC Wayne M. McGuire Watch out for this guy! Wyoming, Michigan

People and site,
Mr Bauer has filled an erroneous unfounded report against our company.  At this time we would like tell the reall story of Mr. Bauer.  Mr. Bauer and our company had a business realtionship that went beyond his ideas.  We did work Mr. Bauer on his own ideas as well, however; Mr. bauers condition started to come to fruition throughout all the projects, especially his.  Mr. Bauer on many several instances halted progress on one idea to yet start another project and/or idea.  Mr. Bauer behavior could be labeled manic which I believe is part of his dignosis.  Mr. Bauers behavior cost man hours as well as transportation cost which he was never billed for.  We had people driving all over the place to help him with his ideas.

As fart as the report in question, we tried to contact him on many occasion not only by phone but also by email.  we have email and phone records to back up our claim.  At one point Mr. Bauer and AIS, LLC entered into a contract to build a product between us and we found out the job Mr. Bauer was supposed to do for his percentage was not done properly, this is when Mr. Bauer was not happy with AIS, LLC.  To add,  I did work for Mr. Bauer and was involved in quite a few of his ideas. At the end we found out at American Inventor Services, LLC that his last 2 ideas were stolen at that point we did not want anythjing to do with ideas which he had stole from other people.  As you will see the reccomendation Mr. Bauer wrote about the comnpany as well as the president.

Rick Bauer has endorsed your work as President at American Inventor Services, LLC.

Dear Wayne,
I've written this recommendation of your work to share with other LinkedIn users. Details of the Recommendation: "At first, I had my reservations in acquiring Wayne's services because I had researched and contacted other patent services in the past, and they had proven to be scams. So, I had some trepidation in hiring Wayne. However, once we got the ball rolling and discussed my ideas, Wayne was very perceptive to my ideas, and went full steam ahead. Within 4 months, I had drawings and a provisional patent application. Three weeks later, I had a provisional patent number.
Wayne does the due diligence necessary to keep the project moving forward...market studies, research, etc. right up to finding the company that will purchase your product. Wayne is in constant contact with me, via e-mail or phone. In addition, a nice friendship has developed and that is a plus because now, as a friend as well as a client, he wants to work even harder to make you happy and achieve your goals and see your product come to fruition.


He has done everything that he said he will do, and then some."

As you will read all the alligations are just that unfounded and brought on by a man who is unstable caused no less from his condition he has been diagnosed with.  This report was intended to smear a good name and a company which helps inventors and has been for over 11 years.

To the site,
Next time you post something without proof you might want to check your sources mental well being and state there of.  furthermore, our legal team is looking into menetarty restiutution, for this may constitute interferrence with commerce.

Interesting. Wayne told me  that he; Wayne was a patent agent and invented the shoe skates. Turns out he did not invent the product he was taking credit for. He also gave me false information and embarrassed me at my place of employment by allowing me to pass on this false information to an executive for a major food retailer for whom he wanted to do Business with. When I confronted him with this information, he tried to blame it on the partner and still thought he could sell the new stolen idea that he wanted me involved with. Unreal!  Caveat Emptor!

My attorney attempted to negotiate a settlement with this company in order to avoid court and attorney costs for both parties. We asked for roughly 40% of what I paid to this company to be returned to me. Mr. McGuire placed the following conditions on us, which we agreed to:

1. Drop my complaint with the Michigan A.G. (The A.G. did not take the case and recommended going to a lower court)

2. Remove a complaint I filed on Ripoffreport.com.

Mr. McGuire then drew a line in the sand and demanded more conditions. He wanted me to give him photos of the prototype for my invention PLUS the paperwork that a patent agency (a legitimate one) filed on my behalf with the USPTO for a utility patent. The patent belongs to me, and thus Mr. McGuire and his company is not entitled to this documentation. In addition, the patent filed contains another item which Mr. McGuire wanted to charge me separately to file. Thus, based on his broker agreement, he is also not entitled to the paperwork because it contains items in which he is not contracted to broker.

Lastly, all contracts and agreements are null and void under the American Inventors Protection Act of 1999, Section 297. Mr. McGuire claimed from the beginning of our relationship that he is a patent agent. He's on record in a radio interview as claiming to be a patent agent. A friend of mine at a fast food retail company had a phone conversation (which he will verify) with Mr. McGuire in which he claims to be a patent agent. However, the USPTO has no record of him on file at their office. Thus, although Mr. McGuire denies it, he is an invention marketer, and, by law, must present full disclosure of the following information to potential clients PRIOR to signing any contracts or agreements:

Required information disclosure from invention promoters/promotion firmsIf you decide to use the services of an invention promoter/promotion firm, keep in mind that the firm must disclose specific information to you regarding their past business practices. This mandatory disclosure form is required by law and is intended to help you make an informed decision whether or not the firm will meet your needs.Specifically, before an invention promotion contract can be established between you and the firm, each invention promotion firm must disclose to you in writing each of the following items of information:

• The total number of inventions evaluated by the invention promoter for commercial potential in the past 5 years, as well as the number of those inventions that received positive evaluations, and the number of those inventions that received negative evaluations. In other words, how much experience does the promoter have? What is their track record? Do they generally give mostly positive or negative evaluations, or is there a balance between their positive and negative evaluation history?

• The total number of customers who have contracted with the invention promoter in the past 5 years, not including customers who have purchased trade show services, research, advertising, or other non-marketing services from the invention promoter, or who have defaulted in their payment to the invention promoter. This information will give you an idea of just how experienced the promoter or firm is and the volume of services they provide.

• The total number of customers known by the invention promoter to have received a net financial profit as a direct result of the invention promotion services provided by such invention promoter. What financial impact, if any, has the promoter or firm actually made to its customers?

• The total number of customers known by the invention promoter to have received license agreements for their inventions as a direct result of the invention promotion services provided by such invention promoter. Like item (3) above, this information will also enable you to gauge the effectiveness of the firm in evaluating its direct impact on its customers. Note the key words in the last two requirements--"as a direct result of the invention promotion services provided by such invention promoter". Be aware that just because a license agreement was eventually secured for a given invention does not necessarily mean that it was a "direct result" of the promotion activities of the firm.



• The names and addresses of all previous invention promotion companies with which the invention promoter or its officers have collectively or individually been affiliated in the previous 10 years.
