[quote=Anonymous][mastodon][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sure Arlington mom will be giddy.   WF has hired two additional lawyers, one a trial lawyer and the other an appellate lawyer.[/quote]

Not Arlington mom (interested to hear her take though), but I think this is too little, too late. These are very well respected litigators but they are inheriting a case where discovery was conducted with no apparent eye towards winning at trial and where the overall strategy may fundamentally undermine their defense.

Also while for most of this litigation I have assumed that Blake was paying more for her representation, I now suspect Baldoni's/Wayfarer's legal bills are going to be the higher total. Blake has retained a more expensive team overall from the start, but I've been impressed with the way Gottlieb and Manatt have tag-teamed on her representation (in a way that likely limits her costs somewhat especially for what I'm sure are astronomical fees for Gottlieb's time), plus they appear to be executing a pretty efficient and thought out plan without a ton of scrambling and last minute changes, and it's worked for her so far. On the other side Wayfarer's legal problems appear worse now than they were when this all started, they now employ three different firms, and four of their lawyers are high dollar, high end attorneys. it just looks like a mess and not at all efficient. And it looks like Sarowitz will be on the hook for all of it if they lose in the insurance disputes, which seems likely due to their own HR and notice failures.[/quote]

This is the most ridiculous thing ever posted on this thread.  Blame subpoenaed well over a hundred  content creators and then withdrew nearly all of them after service.  She has filed literally hundreds of pages seeking attorneys fees and sanctions that have been ignored by the Court.  Her attorneys are not saving her money, they are actively bilking her.
