Cooley's lawsuits charge the bloggers and attorneys with defamation, interference with business interests and other violations of the law. In the July 15th insidehighered.com article, ''Cooley Law School Sues Bloggers and Lawyers, Brent Danielson, chair of Cooley's board, was quoted as saying: ''With ethics and professionalism at the core of our law school's values, we cannot - and will not - sit back and let anyone circulate defamatory statements about Cooley or the choices our students and alumni made to seek their law degree here.''

This article explains what's really going on at Thomas Cooley Law School: Thomas Cooley Law School Exposed (and Why Much of the Legal Profession is a Scam)

According to the insidehighered.com article, one of the anonymous bloggers made the comment online he blogs ''to bring truth and awareness to the students getting suckered in by this despicable excuse for a law school.''

New York based Kurzon Strauss is the law firm named in the suit. According to the article, the firm ran a notice on the J.D. Underground website stating it was ''conducting a broad, wide-ranging investigation of a number of law schools for blatantly manipulating their post-graduate employment data and salary information'' to take advantage of ''the blithe ignorance of naive, clueless 22-year olds who have absolutely no idea what a terrible investment obtaining a J.D. is.''

According to the article, law firm partner David Anziska was quoted as saying: ''This is one of the most ridiculous lawsuits filed in recent memory.'' He went on to say the firm will defend itself, and will countersue Cooley.

Thomas M. Cooley Law School's main campus is located in Lansing, Michigan. It has several satellite campuses also. Currently, Cooley has the largest law school faculty, total enrollment, minority enrollment, and foreign national enrollment in the nation, according to information at Wikipedia.

Kurzon Strauss LLP ''provides clients top legal talent for their transactional and litigation needs. Partners Jeff Kurzon and Jesse Strauss are alumni of prominent law firms,'' who've practiced law in New York City since 2003, according to information at the firm's website.
