Chinese Cyber Attack on U.S. Law Firm

A Los Angeles-based law firm says it's been the target of cyber attacks originating in China.

Gipson Hoffman & Pancione is representing a software company, Cybersitter—which is suing the Chinese government over software piracy.

The firm told the Wall Street Journal its attorneys started receiving Trojan emails on Monday—the day before Google announced it might withdraw from China because of cyber attacks.

Attorney Gregory Fayer says the attacks came from Chinese servers, and that the firm has reported the incident to the FBI.
