RE: Conflict Check
Hi Bert — Here is the list of names for a conflict check
Jeffrey Epstein
J. Epstein Virgin Islands Foundation, Inc.
J.Epstein & Company, Inc.
Epstein Interests
Financial Trust company, Inc.
NES, LLC
New York Strategy Group, Inc.
JEGE, Inc.
Hyperion Air, Inc.
Jeffrey Epstein would be the defendant in any lawsuit, but the other individuals are persons involved in the criminal activity. All of the corporations are essentially alter-egos of Epstein.
Thank you so much.
Thanks. I am also going to need the list of the Ng irls who will be my clients. Can you send those as well?
Thanks,
Bert Ocariz
Bert,
Please keep this confidential because these are minor victims. This is a preliminary list:
Hi Bert — I think we may get a signed agreement within an hour or two. I must confer with defense counsel before selecting the representative. Can you tell me what your billing rate is?
$450 per hour. Preliminary conflict check looks fine. While I know you don't represent the Woung girls, do you know if they would prefer a different arrangement such as contingency or reduced hourly rate with a success fee? I have some flexibility if there is an issue.

Thank you, Bert. The statute (18 USC 2255) provides that the defendant will pay attorney's fees, and the defendant has agreed not to contest liability under the statute (the fight will be limited to the amount of damages to be paid). I plan to propose that you use your regular billing practices, and hopefully the defense will be in agreement.
See, you've won your case already and it hasn't even started!
