In any case, a lawyer that has acted ethically and within the law really has nothing to worry about, regardless of complaints.
I suspect any lawyer that is agitated over complaints to the state bar probably has an ethics problem, and shouldn't be practicing law.
S.G.
Couldn't have said this any better! When one decides to go to far, not only should it be reported on, but it should also be brought to the attention of the State Bar and possibly the Attorney General.
You can bet your ass if I had received that letter from Brandon Sand threatening jail time over a civil matter I would have filed complaints and been very vocal about someone somewhere taking some sort of action.
Bottom line as I've said before, if your willing and make the choice to step into the arena, be prepared for bumps and bruises, especially if you want to try to play unethically..This whole issue of the extortion letters from Getty Images, Timothy McCormack, Hawaiian Art Network, all stems from how THEY choose to do business, perhaps if they chose to do things differently they maight not find themselves in this position.
I'm all for protecting ones IP, and I resepct IP, but these jack wagons trying to collect extortionistic amounts for images that quite frankly are only worth a few dollars at most truly disgusts me. They have the choice to twist the law to their own selfish needs /wants or the choice to handle this in a more morally and ethically way..
