""Paul Weiss was retained by Leon Black, then the CEO of the firm's longtime client Apollo, to negotiate a series of fee disputes with Jeffrey Epstein that spanned several years," Paul Weiss said in a statement. "The firm was adverse to Epstein, and at no point did Paul Weiss or Brad Karp ever represent him." And yet... The most recent release of files from the Epstein case reveals something more."
""I can't thank you enough for including me in an evening I'll never forget," Karp said to Epstein in a July 2015 email. "It was truly 'once in a lifetime' in every way, though I hope to be invited again." "You are always welcome," Epstein responded. "There are many many nights of unique talents. You will be invited often." And Karp responds by calling Epstein "Amazing.""
"Just a quick timeline check - at this point Epstein had already served time for procuring a child for prostitution and for soliciting a prostitute. Bloomberg also reports on a July 2016 email in which Karp asks Epstein for help getting his son a job working on a Woody Allen film production. Indeed, the controversial director, who was accused of sexual abuse by Dylan Farrow (which he denies), played a repeated role in the Karp/Epstein relationship."
Paul Weiss was retained by Leon Black, then CEO of Apollo, to negotiate a series of fee disputes with Jeffrey Epstein spanning several years. Paul Weiss and Brad Karp were not counsel to Epstein. Released files include emails in which Brad Karp thanks Epstein for an unforgettable evening, describes it as 'once in a lifetime,' and calls Epstein 'Amazing.' A July 2016 email shows Karp asking Epstein for help obtaining a film job for his son with Woody Allen. Epstein had previously served time for procuring a child for prostitution and for soliciting a prostitute.
