Report: Prominent Attorney Facing Two Investigations For Misconduct [Gloria Allred]
Western Journalism ^ | 08/08/2017 | Martin Walsh

Posted on 08/09/2017 4:41:04 PM PDT by Fedora

Prominent discrimination and women’s rights attorney Gloria Allred is reportedly under two bar association investigations for malpractice in relation to a television weatherman she was representing in a legal matter.

Washington, D.C., weatherman Kyle Hunter sued CBS in 2010 for allegedly passing him over and offering promotions to young, attractive women. Hunter hired Allred to represent him in his lawsuit asserting that CBS was discriminating against him.

Allred’s previous clients have included a woman who sued President Donald Trump for defamation, a porn star who claimed disgraced ex-congressman Anthony Weiner asked her to lie to the media, and a woman who accused former GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain of sexual harassment.

Allred reportedly failed to disclose to Hunter that she was in talks with CBS at the time about producing a legal drama based on her own life. Hunter argued this was a conflict of interest and that Allred deliberately botched his case to ensure her deal with CBS remained intact.

Hunter said that Allred and other attorneys at her firm refused to conduct interviews and produce witnesses who could have corroborated his version of events.

Hunter’s lawsuit asserts that Allred told Hunter she had contacted the witnesses he provided to her, “but Hunter knew that was a lie. These witnesses were Hunter’s friends, people he had worked with for years, and they told him they were not contacted.” . . .

Allred has denied Hunter’s allegations and told LawNewz in a statement from June that Hunter was trying to shake her down for money.

I have no idea if Allred committed any misconduct or not. That said, her clients tend to be crackpots who are trying to shake down famous people for money. As an attorney myself, I know that crackpots often file bar complaints if their attorney is unable to get them the result they want. Over the years, I’ve gotten pretty good at identifying the crackpots in the initial consultation, and I do not take them on as clients.

Worse, he expected Allred to take the side of a man.
