  • 👉 In this video I explain how another Lawyer stole from me. I discuss how he did it, my reaction, what I did when I discovered what happened and the impact the situation has had on me. During the video I mention the CZcamsr, Stephanie Perry, without her expertise and encouragement I would never have made this video. / stephanieperry

    Hello Sonia, PLEASE DO continue with your animations, they are super useful, clearly laid out and very well presented, and very watchable. Yes we are all dealing daily with human nature and its downsides, that why we have law, and courts and barristers :-) Don't get down, take courage that your work is SO GOOD that someone has had to plagiarise it and pretend it is their work ! Looking forward to some more animations in the future, they are really superb! My regards to you. NickW

    This is outrageous!!! So sorry this happened! I hope you can report them to YT and they get their channel flagged. :(

      Yep, it is outrageous. I'm still deciding whether to reach out to the thief. Thank you for taking the time to comment.

    Hi Sonia, I am sorry to hear what happened. Thank goodness CZcams acted quickly to deal with the matter.
    It would be a great loss not to see any more of your amazing videos which is clearly appreciated by viewers. Take some time to consider whether you want to continue or not. Surely there must be a way to protect your work from those disgraceful thieves.

    I am so sorry, this happened to you… I am a blind third-year law student from the Cayman Islands… Discovered your channel recently. Absolutely adore the animated content… By all means… Reach out to that nasty thief and let him know exactly how you feel. And please please please… Continue to Create an upload all your videos including the animated ones. You have no idea how much this helps people like me. Lots of love from the Caribbean.

      Thank you for the encouragement Blind Law. I am so glad you have found the videos helpful. Your comments re. the animated content has definitely given me food for thought.

    Hi Sonia, So sad to hear this. This is outrageous indeed. You can’t put a true value on intellectual property. I wish you the best outcome from this ordeal. I can genuinely sense your frustration and totally understand why. That is so cheap. Good that in a way It was dealt with swiftly. You are such an articulate and intelligent person so I am confident you will deal with this in the best possible way. Your work is of such good quality and benefits all those that genuinely need it for their development. In my view this should outweigh the negative aspects or experiences stemming from these types of situations. Best wishes from a Friend ❤

    Please carry on! I suggest hiring as a matter of "best practice" for your content IP anyway a virtual assistant who can once a week/month etc scan online for duplication of your work. Sadly content stealing comes with the territory and you can get someone overseas to do this relatively cheaply ($3 to 5 phr) and allocate 2 hrs for example. I've hired for similar in the past and its well worth it. Look at it as the cost of doing business.
    You're valid to feel very upset and angry. Yes there are awful things happening in the world but everything is relative to one's immediate reality. The sense of entitlement, dishonesty from another colleague in law must be bewildering. He/She, saw a video they can steal but you have every second, decision and effort represented in each video.
    Your animated videos are quite unique and differentiate you in a crowded market so don't stop.
    I feel you on the hair!! 🙂

      Thank you for taking the time to comment. I will definitely consider your advice.

  • @briereef3955
    @briereef3955 Před rokem

    In my considered opinion it would make no difference to the thief lawyer as he has clearly shown he has no ethics, no conscience and no morals.
    I would consider asking You Tube how best to put animated content up with added protection which could not be copied and passed off as another’s creation.

    • @advocacytutor6354

      Don't hold back Brie Reef, say what you mean. Lol. Thank you honey.

    I wonder if they can spell copyright strike? The lack of integrity is so gross.

    I’ve just discovered your marvelous array of videos with lovely titles that intrigue me and never disappoint. Thank you for sharing your unique style with us, giving us a tremendous gift. What is wrong with some people today-sorry to be sexist but predictably the pronoun for this thief is “he”. …. You have a great face btw. Hey short and sweet -direct and succinct. Excellent example were your words in dealing with the sort of mentality who would be perfectly okay in grabbing your creation and calling it his own. I’d feel devastated possibly too much so because I would call what HE tried to do (who did not succeed Amen) a violation not unlike kidnapping as you referred to …your baby. I dont think you could possibly exaggerate the impact of truly atrocious actions by this person who,sadly, accepts an inner weakness so poignant, had you not called it to the attn of the enforcers at CZcams, this frightened little man (I use the term loosely) would have likely been perfectly satisfied feigning a talent that he does not own! You do. How sad it must be to prefer living a lie than life that is real; that it is better to live a lie than overlooked in painfully authentic mediocrity. -and believe me this sad little man has mastered the excruciating dullness in both.
    I am done now, but I support you wholeheartedly and adore your contagious courage. You’re brilliant. (From Boston… adore learning from you. I’m only 67 and still learning.

    What a way to find out that your content is being stolen. Wow, sorry about this Sonia!

    • @advocacytutor6354
      @advocacytutor6354  Před rokem

      Yep. He had the content on his channel for 8 months. If I hadn't signed up to Stephanie Perry's course I may never have found out. Thank you for your support Michaela KO.

    There are a lot of unscrupulous lawyers out there unfortunately for the profession and society as a whole. They stole your IP (or obtained or bought from another that stole perhaps) and you are entitled to damages (what that is ?). Or did the organisation who created sell. A few questions to address. Get yourself independent legal advice. At a minimum report it to CZcams and the Channel involved and tell them what you require ie if you object (always record in writing is my understanding and experience) and want the content removed from their channel. However FYI I understand by the content appearing on their channel, it can be flagged as copyrighted (to yourself) and they do not receive a revenue return but you potentially shall. You need to investigate it further and if you would let your subscribers and others know the outcome that would too be a helpful share. I dare say it may be treated along the lines of music. AND if you check your postings, you may find there is a 'Download' option under the videos (as appears on this CZcams video) which potentially creates window of contributory negligence wouldn't it? Perhaps there is provision for you to turn that off. Neither does there appear to be a copyright disclaimer on your Description information which leads me to want to check whether you have integrated copyright into the recordings at the front and or endings. I'm in no way condoning their behaviour and it is still wrong and stealing IMO if you as the creator have not authorised regardless of whether or not there is copyright notice. Personally my practice would be to include copyright information so there can be no doubt as to whom is the owner and or creator and if it has been removed from content stolen it would create another deliberate act and potential offence. Again IMO. Offering food for thought for you. Yes, I agree re the grief. Have been in similar situations, and it can take time to perturbate before we are able to move forward, especially coming from the profession we dedicate our careers to. Interested to know how you have got on, noticing this comment is 9 months later. My best to you and thank you for sharing. PS Is it worth continuing, depends on your why's. I would suggest yes to carve out your niche and brand. Depends on your time, resources and goals and purpose. Does it serve you to continue? For what purpose? If you do, make sure you have peace of mind moving forward.
