No, Jack Schlossberg will not represent Justin Baldoni in his legal battle with It ends with us costar Blake Livelyno matter what he says.
The writer and grandson the former President John F. Kennedy trolled the internet on Thursday January 2 when he claimed through X that he took Baldoni (40) as a client.
“I have agreed to take on JUSTIN BALDONI as a client. Why? JUSTICE,” wrote Schlossberg, 31. “EVERYONE is entitled to a FAIR TRIAL and a VIOLENT DEFENSE. Justin has NOTHING to hide, Justice will be his revenge. After the BOSTON MASSACRE, John Adams represented the British in court. Same day, different day.”
Although Schlossberg was only joking, fans and the media fell for it, with some sources publishing stories Fashion the political correspondent was actually Baldoni’s lawyer.
Schlossberg passed the bar exam in 2023 and graduated from Harvard Law School a year earlier. He added on Tuesday: “My personal feelings about Justin Baldoni are irrelevant. Justin is my client, I am his lawyer. even the most heinous individuals have the right to legal counsel for their defense. I’m not a hero. I’m just doing my job.”
While those in on the joke had a good laugh, Baldoni’s actual lawyer Bryan Freedman he said Daily Mail that the trick was “ridiculous.”
“Nobody on my team talked to him,” Freedman added.
Schlossberg took a victory lap on Instagram, sharing screenshots of news articles through his Stories that said he was Baldoni’s lawyer.
Baldoni is is currently suing The New York Times for $250 million, alleging defamation and invasion of privacy in a false light after a story broke about Lively accusing him of sexual harassment. Freedman added in an interview on Thursday with NBC news that he too plans to sue Lively37, on behalf of his client.
“We plan to release every single text message between the two of them,” Freedman said. “We want the truth out there. We want the documents to be there. We want people to make decisions based on receipts.”
On the same day, Baldoni filed a counterclaim and TimesLively sued Baldoni, as well as his publicists Melissa Nathan and Jennifer Abeland Baldoni’s production company Wayfarer. She is accused of sexual harassment, retaliation, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress, invasion of privacy and lost wages.
“I hope my legal action will help pull back the curtain on these sinister retaliatory tactics that harm people who speak up about wrongdoing and help protect others who may be targeted,” she said in a statement on April 21. My Weekly.
