Ray Beckerman is an attorney in New York City, a partner in the firm of Vandenberg & Feliu, LLP. He is noted for his analysis and commentary on the RIAA's campaign, commenced in 2003, of copyright infringement lawsuits against United States individuals. The RIAA accuses these individuals, some of whom Beckerman represents as legal counsel, of unauthorized peer-to-peer file sharing of music.
Beckerman was admitted to the bar on January 17, 1979, and has served primarily as a commercial litigation attorney.
In addition to his legal work, he writes two blogs: Ohio Election Fraud (formerly "Fairness"), which deals with the 2004 presidential litigation in the state of Ohio, and Recording Industry vs. The People, which chronicles the abovementioned lawsuits between RIAA labels and individual defendants.
He is a member of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the Information Technology Law Committee of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York.
