Statement from Elizabeth Fegan, Founding Partner of FeganScott, on the Conviction of Harvey Weinstein in New York

Below is a statement from Elizabeth Fegan, Founding Partner of FeganScott:

Justice has once again prevailed. Today’s conviction of Harvey Weinstein in New York marks the third time he has been held accountable by the criminal justice system—twice in this state and once in California—for his predatory and serial abuse of women. No matter how many times Weinstein and his legal team try to distort the facts or diminish the voices of survivors, the truth continues to shine through.

We applaud the courage of the survivors who came forward and the diligence of the jury which found Weinstein guilty of a criminal sexual act in the first degree. This verdict is yet another powerful affirmation that no one is above the law.

— Elizabeth Fegan, Esq., Founding Partner, FeganScott, who represented dozens of survivors in the civil cases against Harvey Weinstein, Miramax, and The Weinstein Company, and the First Partner of California in her heroic testimony in the California criminal trial

Justice has once again prevailed.
