A fake lawyer using a fake London mailing address to show he has an office there. The so-called lawyer is nothing more than a scammer.

It is a lawyer affiliated with Game Protect...

He's actually a real lawyer that went to an unacreddited law school (Taft) but passed the California bar in 1992.  (One of the few states that allow people to even take the bar without going to real law school - you just have to pass the 'baby bar' first.).

Since then he seems to have a very similar MO as game-protect.  The only difference being he is an actual lawyer somewhere and not anonymous.  
- Make outrageous claims about how you are going to help victims recover their funds even though wherever the money is is out of your jurisdiction.
- Exaggerate your experience and qualifications.
- Drop links in bitcointalk threads that victims of scams are likely to see.

It seems like his cryptolawoffice.io is his latest scheme since it was registered only a couple months ago.

There's a long thread about him in a lawyer/law based forum that started in 2009 with the last post in 2018: http://thefogbow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=1207

There's probably some interesting stuff in there but I've haven't had time to do more than skim it.
