[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do wonder why WF highly paid counsel couldn't or wouldn't get basic things right like not asserting contract claims against the right parties. [/quote]

Do you wonder why Blake brought the Van Zann complaint as a breach of contract claim or does it just go one way?

I’ll take the side that gets sloppy with group pleading over the side that fabricates a doe complaint in an effort to deprive its opponents of their right to oppose a subpoena.[/quote]

DP, but as a lawyer, the Van Zan thing looks shady to me but does not make me think her lawyers are incompetent because... it worked. Like it actually worked out great and to their client's benefit. I question the tactic but I can't say they aren't doing their jobs well and would even recommend them to a client looking for aggressive, tough litigators willing to go the extra mile.

But the behavior of the Wayfarer lawyers is bizarre and embarrassing. The group pleading issues were blatant and could have been cured before dismissal. Posting that "timeline" as an exhibit? Not just shady, but stupid -- it was full of details that actually benefitted Lively or admitted her claims. That thing Freedman pulled where he issued the triple hearsay declaration to try and claim Lively's lawyer tried to extort Taylor Swift? Absolutely deranged.

I cannot imagine hiring these clowns. They do not seem like serious people at all and you can tell the judge has zero respect for Freedman. It looks like Wayfarer has brought in other lawyers and firms, likely to address the fact that the judge thinks Freedman is a total conman, but a more competent attorney wouldn't have done this stuff to begin with. It makes his clients look guilty.[/quote]
