The Neteller founders hired that law firm to DEFEND them from criminal prosecution by the DOJ it’s not an offensive.
This obviously was a fight the US wanted or they would have never arrested the Neteller founders. Of course they are going to defend themselves and yes they have the money to hire competant legal representation. Nothing shocking here. I doubt this caught the DOJ by surprise.
I wish them the best of luck, they certainly dont “deserve” this harrassment for having provided a quality service that consumers wanted but this is not an offensive or fighting back, its fighting for survival and hopefully for a suspended prison sentence. Lets just hope they dont exchange our information for their freedom.
