Bill Cosby Replaces Attorney in Sexual Assault Case

A prominent entertainment lawyer who represented Bill Cosby is no longer a part of the comedian’s legal team. Cosby replaced Marty Singer with Christopher Tayback of Quinn Emmanuel Urquhart & Sullivan in court documents filed last week. More than 40 women have accused Cosby of sexual assault or abuse, allegations Cosby has long denied. Attorney Singer says he can’t comment on why he is no longer working with the comedian due to attorney-client privilege. “Quinn Emanuel is an excellent law firm,” Singer told The Hollywood Reporter. “We are happy to assist in the transition of the cases to them.”
