I don't know much about laws, but what can an attorney from the US do to 
a somebody in the UK regarding a deal that's for the US only ? The UK 
distributor has (as far as I see) the right to sell records to 
whom-so-ever he likes. If this is a record-shop in the states than that's 
not the problem of the UK guy.
Or am I mistaken ?

Would be true if WARP only presses the CDs for the UK, but AFAIK they do 
sell directly to their distributors in Europe as well. And this is surely 
not easy. Please remember that the records cross a border every some 
miles :-)
