Attorney Andrew Lieb recently joined Newsmax for Breaking News where he delved into the possible Trump indictment in Georgia, as suggested by certain court filings.
Lieb highlighted the need for prudence, wherein he stated, "Until we have the full facts from the indictment, jumping to conclusions is premature. Every charge deserves a thorough review before passing judgment."
The potential use of RICO statutes, or Georgia's anti-racketeering law, is under debate. Andrew stressed the fact that details, such as who exactly is indicted or whether RICO was even invoked, are still unclear. He advocates for a wait-and-see approach.
Additionally, Andrew illuminated the distinct reactions to the indictment from legal and political perspectives. Legally speaking, it's crucial to present just the necessary information to prevent a dismissal, but politically a robust speaking indictment would be far better.
Attorney Andrew Lieb shared insights with the NY Post on workplace rights and union implications. While unions offer protections, they come with legal nuances. Addressing concerns internally, like through HR, is advised, yet unresolved issues may call for legal steps. Strikes, powerful yet consequential, need judicious thought. Lieb delves into factors like "strikes as a last resort" and the importance of a compliant workplace culture. #WorkplaceRights #UnionConsiderations #LegalInsights #StrikeResponsibly #LiebatLaw #EmployeeAdvocacy #attorneyandrewlieb #employmentlawyer #Sagaftra
Attorney Andrew Lieb joined LiveNOW from FOX to analyze Donald Trump's Protection Order.
Today, Trump's legal team fought prosecutors over the scope of a protective order in the January 6 conspiracy case against the former president. A protective order limits what Trump can publicly disclose about evidence and discovery in the case. But Trump argues it restricts his free speech rights as a presidential candidate. The judge will ultimately decide the scope of the order and how strictly Trump must follow it. Violating a protective order can lead to sanctions, fines and even jail time. But handling a case involving a former president and political candidate presents unique challenges. Attorney Lieb believes the judge will show little tolerance if Trump violates it.
Attorney Andrew Lieb joined LiveNOW from FOX to both offer clarity and insight into the Supreme Court's decision to reinstate the regulation of ghost guns, and to analyze Rapper Tory Lanez' sentencing.
Ghost Guns: The Supreme Court's 5-4 decision to reinstate the regulation does not indicate a final stance on the regulation's substance. Rather, it's a preservation of the status quo pending appeal. Lieb's legal interpretation suggests that to address the ghost gun issue effectively, Congress might consider legislation to ensure that assembled guns and unassembled kits adhere to the same regulations, simplifying enforcement and closing potential legal loopholes.
The Lanez Conviction: The case of Tory Lanez's shooting of Megan Thee Stallion has legal circles and the public alike dissecting the intricacies of judicial sentencing. The ten-year sentence Lanez received, against the backdrop of the prosecution's 13-year recommendation and the potential 22+ year maximum. A criminal act was committed, and the judicial system delivered a sentence in response to it.
Attorney Andrew Lieb joins Newsmax to debate with Heritage Foundation attorney about a lawsuit trying to let foster parents discriminate against children's sexual orientation by blaming free speech and religious rights. Lieb argues on behalf of the children from the perspective of the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families in defending the decision to deny the couple's foster application. He cites Massachusetts regulations requiring foster parents to support and affirm the sexual orientation and gender identities of LGBTQ foster children. Lieb claims this policy is needed to ensure vulnerable foster children know that they will be loved no matter who they are because the Constitution guarantees equal protection under the law.
Attorney Andrew Lieb joined MSNBC to dissect the latest charges brought
forth against former President Donald Trump by Special Counsel Jack
Smith. The in-depth discussion examined the complexities of the alleged
fake electoral scheme devised by Trump and his co-conspirators,
intending to reverse the 2020 election outcome. Lieb explained the
historical precedents of such operations and highlighted how this case
deviates. He also evaluated the potential consequences for the "fake
electors" and projected what investigators might hope to glean from
their testimonies. Beyond this, Lieb delved into Trump's defense
strategy, specifically focusing on the invoked First Amendment rights.
Attorney Andrew Lieb appears on MSNBC to dissect the third indictment
lodged against former President Donald Trump. As GOP members widely
employ a First Amendment defense, Lieb systematically dismantles these
claims by highlighting conspiracy as an exemption to free speech
protections, invoking Justice Scalia's ruling in US v. Williams. Lieb
underscores that this case transcends mere incitement allegations.
Rather, it contends that Trump and his co-conspirators endeavored to
manipulate state votes, exerted pressure on former Vice President Pence,
and exploit the Capitol violence for their ulterior motives.
Attorney Andrew Lieb reviewed credibility of Devon Archer (Hunter Biden's ex-business
partner) on LiveNOW from FOX while considering Archer's fraud
conviction. We examined his claims about Joe Biden's role in Hunter's
foreign dealings and the potential misuse of VP influence for personal
gain. Yet, in allegations of criminality, the burden of proof is
crucial. No direct evidence yet. Burden of proof is on the accuser, not
the accused.
Attorney Andrew Lieb joined CBS NY morning news today to discuss the latest court proceeding involving the Gilgo Beach suspect, Rex Heuermann. Today's hearing seemed to be procedural, but there could be surprises ahead, considering the ongoing investigation and potential for a superseding indictment with more charges. Unlikely that he will make bail, given the severity of the charges and concerns for his family's safety. The Gilgo Beach murder case has captivated our region, and we're hopeful for a fair trial leading to justice for the victims.
Attorney Andrew Lieb joined LiveNOW from FOX to analyze Trump facing new charges in the Mar-a-Lago documents case. Jack Smith's January 6 probe shows an imminent indictment, likely next week. The Mar-a-Lago case got even more damning with a new defendant and 450 years potentially in sentencing. Smith strategically timed the superseding indictment to trap Trump, and the evidence is voluminous, including texts and audio recordings. Getting underlings to turn on the boss is crucial. Prosecutorial expertise is evident in Smith's approach, making it hard for Trump to escape this case. More indictments might follow in DC.
Attorney Andrew Lieb joined Newsmax to analyze Hunter Biden's plea deal unraveling in court. Chair Smith from the Ways and Means Committee sought to raise concerns about the investigations with an amicus brief. However, the judge deferred and demanded clarity on the plea deal's immunity scope. This is part of her duty under Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure 11. We have questions but no answers yet, so the investigations must continue. It seems they aimed for a deal in principle without putting the details on paper, raising concerns from a legal standpoint.
Attorney Andrew Lieb was featured in The New York Times, shedding light on a troubling discrimination case in a 55+ community. The homeowners association issued a rule permitting single owners to bring guests to the pool but restricting married couples to only bringing their spouses. Such unequal treatment may potentially fall under housing discrimination, protected by the New York State Human Rights Law.

Attorney Andrew Lieb joined Newsmax to discuss border legal issues. Congress must devise a cohesive immigration policy to safeguard people from cartels, enable legal immigration, and maintain secure borders.
Attorney Andrew Lieb discussed Trump facing new charges on CBS New York. Prosecutors are likely aiming to persuade Donald Trump's aide, Walt Nauta, and property manager, Carlos De Oliveira, through potential deals. The looming threat of jail time may make them reconsider loyalty to their boss.
Attorney Andrew Lieb joined LiveNOW from Fox to delve into the intricacies of
the Ethan Crumbley case, where he stands as a school shooter facing a
Miller Hearing. The crux of this hearing transcends the mere evaluation
of the crime committed; rather, it necessitates a meticulous examination
of crucial factors. These include the defendant's age at the time of
the incident, the surrounding circumstances that culminated in this
tragic event, and most importantly, the potential for rehabilitation.
Throughout
the interview he discussed Rehabilitation vs. Punishment. Is the
primary goal of our criminal justice system to solely seek retribution
and deterrence, or should it earnestly emphasize the opportunity for
redemption and reformation? This introspective inquiry challenges the
foundation of our societal approach to addressing criminal behavior,
especially in cases involving juveniles like Crumbley.
Check out this powerful story about our client, Julio Germain, who faced shocking racism and discrimination at the Suffolk County Department of Public Works.
Julio Germain, a 38-year-old DPW employee, endured years of racist and discriminatory behavior from his co-workers and supervisors.
Julio bravely reported the misconduct, but management ignored his complaints and even retaliated by denying him promotions.
With the help of our team, Julio filed a complaint with the New York State Division of Human Rights, and they have confirmed that there's probable cause to believe Suffolk County DPW engaged in unlawful discriminatory practices.
As the law firm representing Julio, we firmly stand against any form of discrimination, and we won't rest until justice is served.
Please share this story and let's create awareness to put an end to racism and discrimination in the workplace. Together, we can make a difference!
Attorney Andrew Lieb joined a Newsmax panel discussion about chronic tardiness at the workplace.
To qualify for accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a condition must be a statutorily recognized disability. Currently, chronic tardiness related to mental health doesn't meet this criterion.
If recognized, it must then be proven that the employer doesn't face undue hardship due to the employee's unpredictable timekeeping.
Lieb advised employers against bending rules for certain groups to avoid creating a reverse discrimination scenario. He advocated for strict, fair policies that benefit all employees and ensure genuine accommodations for recognized disabilities aren't undermined.
In a recent interview with Fox 5 NY, Attorney Andrew Lieb discussed the potential implications of New Jersey's lawsuit against New York's proposed congestion pricing plan. If New York fails to take the environmental impact study seriously, the repercussions could be profound.
A judge may not only discard the congestion pricing plan but also the resulting delays from the lawsuit could hinder New York's ability to implement the plan, even if eventually approved.
In a recent interview on LIVENOW from Fox, Attorney Andrew Lieb provided an analysis regarding former President Donald Trump's legal challenges in the January 6 probe.
During the interview, Lieb emphasized the lack of surprise surrounding Trump's involvement in the probe, citing previous cases involving the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys leaders as precedent. He noted the existence of an active Grand Jury in Washington, D.C. together with the target letter, indicating the likelihood of future charges against Trump.
Lieb highlighted the potential consequences of multiple indictments, discussing the existing charges in New York and Florida. He acknowledged the differing jury compositions in Washington, D.C., and Florida, underscoring the impact of juries on legal proceedings compared to media influence on public perception.
Regarding the implications of facing charges in multiple jurisdictions, Lieb differentiated the New York case, centered around false business records, from the cases in Washington, D.C., and Florida. He also alluded to the possibility of future charges in Georgia and New Jersey, outlining the significant challenges Trump could face if indicted on multiple fronts.
Lieb stressed the importance of patience and cautious evaluation of official indictments. He recommended relying on credible sources such as the PACER system for accurate information on federal court filings.
Lieb advised Trump against discussing his defense on social media, urging him to allow his legal team to handle the complexities of his case.
