Re: Jeffrey Epstein¶
Dear Mr. Josefsberg:¶
We are in receipt of letters dated September 2, 2008 from Assistant U.S. Attorney that were sent to sexual assault victims of Jeffrey Epstein. That letter advises victims that you will be contacting them regarding civil claims against Epstein. Please be advised that we strenuously object to these letters and the contemplated unsolicited contacts with victims. Please be further advised that we represent the following victims in claims against Jeffrey Esptein, and direct that you make no contact with any of them, except through our office:¶
We further believe that Mr. Epstein’s plan for you to represent victims, and for the Assistant U.S. Attorney to assist you in soliciting them, is in violation of the Florida Bar Rules, particularly Rule 4-7.4. We urge you not to participate in these activities.¶
