we’ve done

and fairly recently a large amount of

celebrity cases and usually

what comes with celebrity cases is a

high net individual usually they have

lots of money when i first started

practicing they’d have millions of

dollars now we have cases where they

literally have

billions of dollars and those cases are

not easy to navigate sometimes the

personalities

of the

clients are difficult to manage

because they’re high stakes and

they’re in the public eye

it’s difficult to

navigate with opposing counsel and

sometimes when the

public is in the courtroom along with

the media the judge’s demeanor is also

different so you have to take that into

account so again this falls within the

ambit you want an attorney

that is a seasoned attorney that has

experience dealing with celebrities with

high net individuals because the laws

are different when it comes to

support child support especially in the

state of california and you want someone

that’s going to be able to deal with the

media and there’s many examples of that

recently in the news

in the case involving amber hurd and

johnny depp we see a lawsuit involving

ms heard writing an op ed in the

washington post without naming mr depp

and being sued for that so if you are

representing a celebrity and you walk

out of a courtroom and and say

you know mr so and so actor is a bad

person for the following reasons and

it’s outside of the courtroom and not in

the paperwork that’s filed in the court

you or your client could be sued for

that so you have to be

very circumspect about

who you talk to and what you say to the

media

and your client relies upon you for that

type of advice

notwithstanding everything that i’ve

said some of my closest

clients and ones that i

consider having a personal relationship

now were celebrities that are the most

down-to-earth wonderful people that i’ve

ever met so it can also be

again such a rewarding experience where

you represent somebody that ostensibly

has a certain reputation

in public

and is their their

personal persona is so different
