Sorry I am coming late to this forum topic. Craig Sanders Long Island office is around the corner form mine and he is partner at a firm that specializes in medmal and disability claims. He hooked up with BWP Media a little while ago and has been engaged in this flurry of activity. I have responded on behalf of clients to about 3 or 4 of his claim letters and he has not yet answered any of them back or filed suit. When I did my own PACER research after being hired for the first time I also saw that most of them settle or get terminated right after filing. It would be very hard and expensive for BWP Media to go through and litigate all these claims. They would also have to hire local counsel to move Mr. Sander's admission pro hac vice as he almost always has field in States where he does not regularly practice. In fact if he keeps filing in those states they may stop accepting his pro hac applications and require him to obtain full membership to their Bar. While BWP does specialize in celebrity images, their claims are not that different from Getty in that they don't always supply the proof and make cryptic or unsupportable demands in their letters. I think they may get their comeuppance if a case actually gets litigated.
