Over 4,000 people have been identified as possible victims of phone hacking since the News of the World scandal first made headlines. The parent company News International has paid out millions in compensation settlements. Now the storm is coming to American shores.
Mark Lewis is an attorney in his native England. He has represented over 100 clients whose phones were hacked, including the family of Milly Dowler, the abducted teenage girl who was found murdered outside of London in 2002. Mark comes to America in pursuit of potentially hacked phones on American soil.
