Gloria Allred Is the Woman Behind the Other Women

By Jo Piazza Posted Mar 27th 2010 01:00PM

Gloria Allred hasn't always been associated with "the other woman." The University of Pennsylvania alum (Go Quakers!) made a name for herself with very high profile pro-lady discrimination cases. She fought against the Boy Scouts of America for excluding 11-year-old Katrina Yeaw. She fought for actress Hunter Tylo when Aaron Spelling fired her for getting pregnant. And she successfully sued the all-male Friars Club in Beverly Hills for excluding female members.

But nowadays, Allred is best known as the lady lawyer mistresses go to when they may or may not want to go public with their private indiscretions. In fact, Jesse James' as-yet-unnamed fourth mistress has already retained her services.

Her first foray into a nationally-publicized love triangle came in 2004 when Amber Frey, mistress of wife murderer Scott Peterson, enlisted Allred to protect her against an onslaught of media attention.

Allred must have really caught the bug with Amber, because these days she has become synonymous with protecting the interests of women who have slept with other women's husbands. In the early days of the Tiger Woods scandal, mistress number one, Rachel Uchitel, solicited Allred's services. Allred organized, and then abruptly canceled, a press conference for Uchitel, who has remained pretty much mum on the scandal ever since.

Former porn star Joslyn James also signed on as an Allred client, allowing the self-described "most famous woman attorney in the nation" the opportunity to blast Woods in the media, declaring he needs "lying rehab" and "betrayal rehab" in addition to his therapy for sex addiction.

"The woman gets results, and now those results come with cash. She -- allegedly -- got Rachel Uchitel a million dollars. Who knows how much she's negotiating for Josyln James? She's smart and willing to take these high-profile cases," says 'Cult of Celebrity' author Cooper Lawrence.

Now, one of the women associated this week's serial cheater, Jesse James, has secured Allred's services. Allred informed Radar Online that her client is a "beautiful model and businesswoman" who had a "three year intimate relationship with Jesse James." Allred also said that her client had not fully decided whether or not to come forward and disclose her relationship with actress Sandra Bullock's husband.

"He pursued her and had strong feeling for her. She is in the process of trying to decide if she will come forward. She has proof of their relationship, including hundreds of text messages, e-mails and photos. The relationship JUST RECENTLY ENDED after the scandal broke," Allred continued.

"Gloria Allred is the new Johnnie Cochran for hookers and porn stars who bed celebrities. These women go to her because she has a track record of making money for anyone involved in a scandal," explains trial attorney and divorce lawyer Stacy Schneider, author of 'He Had It Coming: How to Outsmart Your Husband and Win Your Divorce.' "Gloria gets these ladies great deals, whether it's paid media publicity, photo spreads or interviews or lucrative contracts to keep their mouths shut. The men get nervous when Gloria is hired because they know she is media savvy and will drag them through the mud if it means a pay day for her clients."

But the question remains -- why get a lawyer, particularly a celebrity lawyer, if you have no intention of engaging the media with your story? Our bet is that this woman comes forward by the end of the month. And with Allred spinning her statements, we're sure she'll be playing the victim and not the temptress.

"Gloria Allred is making a fortune off these cheating scandals. I am sure she is laughing all the way to the bank, even as her colleagues criticize her tawdry client list and her recent dry spell of handling any cases of serious legal merit," Schneider says.

I don't see a problem -- the mistresses can bring thier best magicians and the johns will bring theirs. If the john has a deep pocket then money might switch pockets but then he can afford a dream team of his own. No sympathy from this direction.

By robin

my problem with her is she just seems to love the limelight too much.even when she is not hired she goes seeking out people who really dont even need a lawyer just to get in front of the camera.why pay a lawyer all these fees when your are simply getting paid for an interview what do you really need her to do then she gets in front of the cameras and fans flames where she has many time been dead wrong.

By Amanda Lewis

Wow, Gloria Allred must really feel pretty low to stoop to the level of ambulance chaser. Are you really that irrelevant that you have to jump on the he's a cheater bank wagon. Just because one of your little loose clients screws a married man does not mean there is a court case. These skanky girls knew the man was attached and still chose to do what they did. there is no payment due them, they deserve no fame. What they need to do is go get tested for STD's and HIV and learn how to respect their bodies and other people.

What is the point except how to make money for sleeping with someone else's husband. Gloria Allred is a publicity seeking creep. She should have enough money by now made from these disgusting women. It sure looks like they know how to get the guy and make money -- story is as old as the bible. Don't tell me they had feelings for the guys. they knew what they were doing when they started saving the messages.

She is more like, the drug addict, Rush Limbaugh, the acoholic, Glenn Beck and the sexual harasser, Bill O Reiley. They are on TV to make money and will do any low life thing to get it, just like Gloria. But they are all white and you prefer to talk about Jesse Jackson because he is black. Jackson is far from perfect, but at least Jackson has made significant contributions to society where as these low life white guys have just lined their pockets and Limbaugh and Beck spew hate. Why not just stick to the story about Alred, the camera grabbing money hungry attorney. As far as Jesse James is concerned, he hasn't gotten half the bad press as Tiger Woods, but they need to stick with what they are good at, building bikes and playing golf. Because, playing with women is like playing with fire if you don't know what you are doing, soon or later, you get burned. Oh well.

No respect for Allred whatsoever or the lowlife she chooses to represent. Yuk.

Allred is disgusting. An old woman with no career. She feeds off these ho's.

I feel sorry for all of you who have such hateful words for Gloria Allred. I came to know her from a case that I did not call her on, but was in the middle of one of them. I used to think that she was so rude and out to hurt other, but boy was I wrong. Gloria was kind, hard working, and took it upon herself to protect the many in this case from being thrown to the media wolves. Not one dime did she take from those of us that were in the middle of a big mess. She said that she was there to protect
and that is what she did. I have the utmost respect for her.

The problem is that most fail to realize the people who are thrust in the spotlight by celebrity stupidity need a person who know how to manage the hell of media bashing. Gloria is the they contact, she does not have to contact them. I learned a valuable lesson about judging someone without really knowing them. My apologies to Gloria for doing that to her because after working with her for months, I learned who this women really is. She is a good person who does what she needs to do for those who made stupid choices by believing in the "stars of celerbrities".

It might be for you case she was a help. But for the case she is handling now about these harlots/tramps. That is something else. If you were the wife and your husband screw around with a tramp and that tramp suit you husband or ex> How you would you feel you are the injury party not the tramp/harlot. You are the victim. A man is going to try and get into anyone panties it up to the owner of those panties to say HELL NO!!!!! and mean it!!!!

SO LADY IF YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN WEARING THE SAME SHOES AS THE VICTIM/WIFE SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!

I HAD TWO TIMING HUSBANDS. WOMEN JUST DID KEEP AWAY FROM HEM, BUT SINCE THEY WERE POOR THERE WAS NOT REASON TO SUIT BECAUSE THE MONEY IS NOT THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, she represents opportunists who feel that they can get rich by dating rich guys, who are playing them just like they were trying to play the rich guy. The innocent wifes, who were not involved in the sex with them, get screwed in the end. However, there are women, whose husband are cheating on them, will leave them for some young thing and give them hell about paying child support. Those are the women, I truly feel sorry for and men who get that kind of deal as well. Bullock can walk away with her head in the air and with her own money, she is a victim. Tiger's wife can walk away with the millions more than she would have had if she worked all her life instead of marrying him, which she knew before she married him, and no worry of child support. I think I could take embaracement and humiliation for a chunk of Tiger's money instead of walking away broke ass. Most people know what they are getting into before they jump into it.

She's no better than the TRASH she represents. What do you call it when you throw a Lawyer off a cliff. A good start.

I agree 100% they are all harlots and tramps including Gloria I just hope she does not have a daugther who a harlot or tramp screw around with her daughters husband. I betacha so goes after the women for alienation of affections.
