The complaint portrays McCabe as using these confidential materials to his advantage, aiming to expose the alleged affair between Kristy McCabe and Brian Fritz.
Fierce Denials and a Battle of Accusations
Patrick McCabe’s legal team is not taking the lawsuit lightly. Joe Tucker of Tucker Law Group, representing McCabe, issued a blistering statement dismissing the lawsuit as a baseless attempt to defame his client. Tucker argues that the lawsuit is part of a scheme by Brian Fritz to distract from his own actions during the divorce proceedings, specifically an alleged affair with McCabe’s wife. Tucker’s defense suggests that the lawsuit is more about personal vendettas than legal ethics.
“This lawsuit is the latest ploy by Brian Fritz to cover up his conduct and throw dirt at McCabe,” Tucker’s statement claimed. “McCabe is committed to clearing his name and bringing the truth to light through the legal process.”
The Legal Web Grows as Firms Stay Tight-Lipped
The case, which could have widespread ramifications, has attracted attention from across the legal landscape. However, both Holland & Knight and Polsinelli have remained silent on the matter. A spokesperson for Polsinelli declined to comment, and Holland & Knight’s legal team has yet to publicly respond to the lawsuit. Requests for comment from Fritz & Bianculli’s attorneys have similarly gone unanswered.
