Phone Repairman Stole Intimate Images During Insured Repair Visit - Seeking Counsel

Card image cap

During an insurance claim and dispatched phone repair at my home through a national phone insurance company, a technician wearing the company’s uniform accessed a hidden photo album on my wife’s phone and sent four intimate videos of us having sex to his own number, then deleted the messages. The activity was discovered through messages synced to an iPad. Law enforcement investigated, obtained a warrant, seized the technician’s phone, and he has now been arrested and charged with two felonies: computer theft and transmitting intimate images without consent. Detectives are currently conducting digital forensics and believe there may be other victims. I’m seeking civil representation for invasion of privacy, emotional distress, and corporate liability against the technician and companies involved however, I’m having trouble getting a lawyer to take my case. Each one I’ve consulted with have mentioned that I have a strong case but follow that with not handling these types of cases. Can someone point me in the right direction to obtain representation? Is this something I should even be pursuing? My wife has been distraught and has suffered from anxiety as a result of the technician’s blatant misconduct and invasion of privacy. And I believe he and the company that sent him to my home should be held responsible for this. Location: GA
