Partner Adam Michaels Weighs in on Avenatti Extortion Scandal in WWD

Partner and head of litigation at HBA, Adam Michaels, was recently featured in a Women’s Wear Daily news article, weighing in on Michael Avenatti’s alleged plan to extort Nike for upwards of $20 million.

“Certainly it’s on the radar not only of law enforcement but of enterprising and aggressive attorneys and also the public consciousness,” said Adam Michaels, a partner at Hand Baldachin & Associates LLP, who heads the firm’s litigation practice. “If any other companies have any suspicion that people acting on their behalf are engaging in similar behavior, they have an opportunity to suss out the misconduct before other people do it for them.”
