We are looking for a phenomenal, well crafted, and well-concepted logo that speaks volumes to a largely Beverly-Hills based audience. We work with high profile individuals and need something that shows we are at the top of our industry.

....I still be that if you took your logo and their to small claims court...you might have a chance. The problem with that, according to my friend, is that if the judge agree with you...it is then 'your' responsibility' to get the money from the client. Something they seem unwilling to do (if it came to that point).
Bummer. I have written a letter of protest to 99Design, but I don't think that anything (other than 99Design getting a black eye) will come out of it.
Oh well...

The contest holder then says that they have their own in-house design team and their team has hand-lettered and drawn out the present logo, so that there is no mark, monogram, typeface, or other design that fully replicates what they have done, or vice-versa.

Hi,all
Tthe response 99designs got from the Contest Holder is that he don't want to remove the logo from his site and says that its just a co-incidence that our design matches someone else designs.
, however it sounds like they think they are in the right and are
unlikely to remove it.They have banned the contest holder, it's really unfortunate when things like this happen.

"Logo redesign for our Alex Davis Estates", was this the name of the contest before? I think it was changed, hmm...
