Retaliatory Lawsuit Dismissed with Sanctions Imposed

The firm successfully achieved the dismissal of a retaliatory lawsuit filed by Sean Combs’ former security guard Joseph Sherman against our client – whose underlying lawsuit against Combs and Sherman for sexually assaulting her years earlier is ongoing – and against our co-counsel in that case, Gloria Allred. The judge called Sherman’s claims “patently frivolous” and imposed sanctions on Sherman’s lawyer for having filed the case.
