AXS Law enjoins European hacker

Our Middle Eastern client’s former European business partner hacked his server, attempting to extort him under the  threat of exposing his private financial and business information. Within days of being contacted by the client, AXS LAW immediately sought and obtained an emergency restraining order preventing the defendant from any further hacking, prohibiting him from disclosing or destroying any of the hacked material, even in court filings, and requiring him to turn over all of his computers to an independent forensic expert.  The case settled within weeks of the restraining order being issued.
