UK Anti-P2P Lawyer Faces Disciplinary Tribunal

Written by Jared Moya

The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) decides to refer Andrew Crossley of ACS Law to the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (SDT) following complaints over the firm’s practice of sending ‘bullying’ letters to people it accused of illegal file-sharing.

Back in May of last year a new law firm called ACS: Lawsprang up to take on the battle of illegal file-sharing, sending out P2P “settlement” letter en masse on behalf of a number of different copyright folders.
