There was no other way for this to end — Wites & Kapetan, a law firm in Lighthouse Point, Florida, is officially investigating the Lenovo Superfish adware scandal that has dominated headlines throughout the technology world this week. We’ve written about the adware multiple times already, but this is the first we’re hearing about a potential class action lawsuit.

Wites at Wites & Kapetan, P.A., at 1-866-277-8631 or mwites@wklawyers.com,” the firm writes on its website.
