Experience with DTv: I am actively involved in one current lawsuit and have handled 6 cases dealing with the cease and desist letters. I have been keeping current on all the latest court rulings across the country tracking cases both on Lexis and Pacer for my clients. I take an aggressive posture with regard to defending these cases as I believe directv's actions of presuming everyone's guilt based on circumstantial evidence is unethical overkill and many innocent people have been wrongfully swept up by their dragnet approach.
Rates: I have a reasonable fee structure on these cases. Free initial consultation and negotiable hourly/flat rate depending on the complexity of the case, the extent of services needed, and I do accept payments. Call me for a quote and free case analysis.

Experience With DTv: One case representing end user. Dismissed without any monetary damages. Currently pending motion for costs and have just filed extensive complaint for malicious prosecution. I have formally dealt with only one DTV end-user case. That case was dismissed, without payment from the Defendant. HOwever, prior to dismissal, I was able to get DTV to admit under oath that they had provided false testimony in the past regarding the design of certain devices, and that the "receipt" offered as evidence of the guilt of many end-users was actually created by DTV. I hope all of the opther defense attorneys read this. DTV CREATED THAT RECEIPT!
Rates: Depending on the case. We may even take such cases on contingency depending on the facts and circumstances fo the particular case. Normal hourly rate is $250 per hour. Willing to accept flat rate or contingency for the right case.
