Big Time Lawyer Enters Dodgers Divorce Battle

Topic: High Profile Cases
David Boies is a big-time lawyer who represented Al Gore in the 2000 Presidential Election litigation and he also beat Microsoft in an anti-trust lawsuit. Boies is now entering the Dodgers divorce fray on behalf of Jamie McCourt. Boies isn't a divorce lawyer. He's more of a business litigator. His retention by Jamie McCourt signals that she's going all-out to extract either an ownership interest in the Dodgers from estranged husband Frank or at least a huge financial payday to back off the ownership demand.
Boies recently handled the trial on behalf of proponents of gay marriage in California in the Proposition 8 case that is near conclusion in San Francisco federal court. By all accounts, Boies did a masterful job at that trial.
Can this Dodger divorce get any nastier? You bet. The fun has only begun.
