Q: “At what point did you decide to file a lawsuit against the defendant?”
A: “Well, wherever I went after the story, people said, ‘Are you going to sue him? Are you going to sue him?’ and I would say, ‘No, no, no, not going to do it. I’m just not.’ And then I had a conversation with someone who knew the ins and outs, an actual lawyer, and he said, ‘You should really seriously think about this.’”
Q: “Who was that lawyer without getting into the conversation?”
A: “George Conway.”
Q: “How did you meet George Conway?”
A: “Met him at a party at Molly Jong-Fast’s house.”
Q: “Was he your lawyer at the time?”
A: “No, no, no, no.”
Q: “So after you spoke to George, did you retain counsel?”
A: “Yes.”
Q: “How soon after?”
A: “The day after. The day — two days later.”
Q: “Did George recommend Ms. Kaplan?”
A: “Yes, he did.”
