Litigators with Beal Sutherland Berlin & Brown have successfully leveraged Georgia’s Anti-SLAPP, or anti-strategic lawsuits against public participation, statute to protect their client from allegations of defamation launched by a shaman accused of sexual assault.
As defense counsel prepare to collect about $10,000 in attorney fees, they’re opening up about their ability to both secure the anti-SLAPP motion and prevail at getting plaintiffs Jeffrey Glattstein and The EAST Institute Inc.‘s remaining claims against former employee, Nat Brown, dismissed.
