Update - On April 15, 2014, I filed a new lawsuit. Click the following link to read Above the Law.

I am officially done telling the majority of the Trevino-Alfieri story. It certainly has not ended and continues to unfold. We are in post-production now and expect to finish it in late April.

The personal and professional relationship Victor and I had has not been restored and will not likely be. I still want this movie to be completed and distributed... and of course, I would love to recover my investment.

I believe that the story can be told through the following videos.  These videos have been uploaded to YouTube. There are a few that are part of this blog that have not been uploaded. My understanding is that only YouTube videos can be watched on this blog when using a mobile phone or ipad to read the blog. That is why I have created this post and have included all the YouTube videos so more people can have access to them.

Fighting Back

Update as of 10-15-2018 -- The case has been dismissed by both parties.  As we have agreed to move forward, the dismissed case will remain confidential.

No Insurance Coverage, No Attorney, 

No Money to Fight... No Hope?

Early April, 2012 - When Victor Alfieri dismissed his lawsuit against me, I lost my insurance coverage. I was on my own again with no money to hire an attorney to pursue my legal action against Alfieri.

I reached out to my USM (University of Santa Monica) community. One of my classmates referred me to his brother, an excellent young attorney, Hass Sadeghi. I remember the first time I talked to Hass. He listened to me and the facts of my case. His kindness and sincerity were evident, even over the phone. I told him that I did not have much money. He  said that we could work something out. He lives and works in San Diego. So he suggested that it would be a good idea to partner up with a colleague of his, David Hakimfar who has offices in downtown Los Angeles and Hollywood.

Attorneys with True Vocation - To Advocate and Fight for their Clients

I met with Hass and David on April 15, 2012. We talked for a few hours. I explained to them that I really wanted to amend my cross-complaint based on omitted facts, new facts/allegations and to add Defamation as a cause of action.  I told them that I understood that nobody could guarantee that I would win the case or that I would get any of my money back (from the film production).

Dropping my lawsuit at that time would have been the "sensible" thing to do, as I had no money to fund litigation. Doing so felt so wrong to me. I wanted the opportunity to file an amended cross-complaint to tell the truth - my truth. I wanted those facts to be official and public.

Hass and David agreed to work for a reduced rate. I managed to come up with the amount required for the retainer... after cashing my IRA and using my tax return money, of course.  I don't regret making that investment. Hass and David provided outstanding representation, service and support. I can honestly say that Hass and David truly understood what my case was about and what I wanted to achieve, or at least, what I wanted to pursue with the litigation.

They agreed to file the amended cross-complaint as I drafted it.   And here's the complaint... the very same complaint my previous attorney refused to file.

[Disclaimer - This complaint was filed in July, 2012, before I learned that Alfieri had indeed finished the movie.  I recently retracted the allegations of fraud in relation to the production of the film.]
