It is our opinion and belief that corporate lawyers regularly lie not only to the courts but to potential opponents of their clients. We regularly document their lies in our web pages. Where a company's lawyer was reasonable and retracted the actions against the seller, that company has not been listed as an abuser. These are RARE occurances. Usually the corporate lawyer maintains the line of lies and propaganda that the client wants perpetrated regardless of the invalid legal position of the client and the unnecessary harm to the legitimate seller. After all, these corporate lawyers have yachts, cars, villas, and offices for which they must pay expenses. It's not their place to refuse that corporate expense check.

This list includes a variety of others who, in our never to be humble opinion, we believe have lied about copyright and/or trademark infringement to parties who were not infringing, just like they were lawyers or had some sort of legal knowledge.
