I hired Jeffrey Antonelli to represent me in a copyright infringement case. When I contacted him I had already spoken to another lawyer (also excellent) and Jeff spent a great deal of time with me in his initial free consultation, answering my questions. His knowledge was as or more complete than any other lawyer I spoke to, and his fees were very fair and more reasonable than the other attorney I was considering. He achieved a settlement that was not only $40,000 below what the plaintiff was initially requesting, but $5000 less than what the other attorney estimated the settlement would be. Jeff was pleasant to deal with, calm and friendly, and always answered my emailed questions. If you are looking for a lawyer for a copyright infringement suit, I would talk to several lawyers before deciding on representation, but make sure Jeff Antonelli is one of them.

One of the most important first things to note is that the notice from your ISP about Strike 3 Holdings is real and not a scam. You are likely about to be sued for copyright infringement in federal court.

What Happens When You Ignore A Strike 3 Holdings Subpoena?

Right now, if you have just received your notice, you are known to the court as John Doe. However, if you ignore the subpoena, your internet service provider (ISP, such as Comcast, Verizon, AT&T, etc.) will likely release your name to Strike 3 Holdings LLC’s lawyers.

Once Strike 3 Holdings LLC has your name, in almost all cases, they will amend the complaint name in the public court documents, moving from “John Doe” to your name. You will then be served with a court summons.

Under no circumstances should you ever ignore a court summons.

Some clients let us know that they don’t mind losing their anonymity, but the downside to ignoring your Strike 3 Holdings subpoena and receiving a summons is that your options moving forward are limited, and you’ll lose some of your negotiating power.

What Are Some Options For My Strike 3 Holdings Case?

Whether or not you did it (or whether or not you think you should be penalized), you are still likely to be sued. At this point, the Strike 3 Holdings company believes you did, and the court believes they have enough evidence for the case to continue.

You now have three options available to you:

  • Settle your case out of court
  • File a Motion to Quash
  • Fight back in court

If you do choose to settle, having an attorney experienced in these specific types of copyright infringement cases may help you negotiate a lower Strike 3 Holdings settlement amount.

We will fight for you until your case is resolved entirely and will aggressively negotiate settlement amounts for our clients.

My Strike 3 Holdings Lawsuit Is Real, Now What Do I Do?

Do not sign anything. In any given lawsuit, one should not sign paperwork without understanding fully what they are agreeing to. If one receives something in the mail from Strike 3 Holdings requiring a signature, do not sign it until you have had the chance to consult with an attorney representing you. This is so the individual knows the implications of what you’re signing.

Do not delete anything. Many defendants assume that deleting the content from their devices can help get rid of evidence that they may have downloaded Strike 3 Holding content. However, this is not the case. In fact, if one deletes their content it can end up making one’s penalties worse and appear as an admission of guilt.

Contact a defense attorney with experience in internet service provider subpoenas. Once you are sure you are being sued, you should contact someone who can help guide you through what the next steps may be.
