Bill Cosby cut ties with his longtime lawyer Marty Singer and is now being represented by someone new.
The 78-year-old has switched over to Christopher Tayback and the Quinn Emanuel Urquhart and Sullivan firm, court papers revealed on Tuesday.
Singer said he could not comment on why he’s no longer working for Cosby, but said he was “ happy to assist in the transition of the case to the new lawyers.” (RELATED: Judge Makes Big Decision In Bill Cosby Rape Case)
Singer is a famous Hollywood lawyer who has been labeled as the “guard dog to the stars.” He’s represented Charlie Sheen, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Harry Reid.
Over 40 women have accused Cosby of drugging or sexually assaulting them, though he has steadfastly denied the allegations. (RELATED: Fordham University Retracts Bill Cosby’s Honorary Doctorate Degree)
