Frequently Asked Questions
What is Malibu Media?
Once that identity is disclosed, Malibu Media typically contacts the defendant with an offer to settle the case, often for many thousands of dollars. These settlements are usually framed as a way to avoid public embarrassment and costly litigation.
What should I do if I receive a subpoena?
If you’ve been contacted by Malibu Media or received a subpoena, it’s important to take the situation seriously. Do not ignore the notice or lawsuit—failing to respond can lead to a default judgment and greater legal consequences. At the same time, do not attempt to contact Malibu Media or their attorneys directly, as doing so could hurt your chances of a favorable outcome. Your best move is to consult with an experienced intellectual property attorney immediately. A qualified lawyer can help you understand your rights, protect your identity, and begin working toward a discreet and effective resolution.
What happens if I ignore the notice?
Will I have to go to court?
Not necessarily. Most Malibu Media lawsuits are resolved outside of court through confidential settlements. In fact, going to trial is rare. If you act quickly and consult with an experienced attorney, there’s a strong chance your case can be resolved without ever stepping into a courtroom—often anonymously and with far less stress or cost.
