File Sharing Law Firm at Centre of Disciplinary Storm

Infamous file sharing firm, ACS: Law, are finally been brought to task over their extreme methods of scare-mongering and intimidation over non-existent file sharing cases. The firm and its boss, Andrew Crossley, will shortly be facing a disciplinary tribunal instigated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority.

Many hundreds of innocent people have fallen foul of ACS: Law over the last few years. Most of these have been the victim of letters demanding cash in return for dropping bogus illegal file sharing claims. Such is the scale of the problem that in July 2010 alone, the Solicitors Regulatory Authority received a staggering 418 cases. Over the last year, the SRA has literally been swamped with people unhappy about their treatment at the hands of ACS: Law and its boss, Andrew Crossley.

Many consumer groups have been campaigning for a long time about the reprehensible behaviour of Mr. Crossley and his team of lawyers. Now that the rogue law firm might finally be made to stop their bullying tactics, consumer groups such as Which? hope that this will be the end of such inappropriate cases, preferably before the already tarnished reputation of the legal profession is damaged any further.
