Celebrity lawyer Alex Spiro withdraws from Adams' sexual assault suit as he reps mayor in historic federal corruption case
Briefly

Spiro's decision stems from concerns raised by the city's Conflicts of Interest Board, who highlighted potential conflicts in representing Adams in both a criminal case and a civil lawsuit.
The board informed Quinn Emanuel that representing Adams in both matters presents a conflict of interest, emphasizing even the appearance of a potential conflict in continuing representation.
Beach-Mathura's lawsuit accuses Adams of sexual misconduct dating back to when they both worked at the Transit Bureau, claiming he pressured her for sexual acts.
Adams, facing serious allegations of a long-ago sexual assault, maintains his innocence, adamantly stating he doesn't recall ever meeting his accuser during his service on the police force.
