Derek Tran says representing abusers for payday has “merit”

Derek Tran doubled down defending his work representing abusers for a payday when pressed by KTLA yesterday. 

Tran lied claiming the multiple news reports about him are not true. Then Tran claimed the cases “have merit” and “each one of these clients that I represent … they deserve zealous representation.”

Reminder: Tran represented a man accused of sexual assault fired for locking a woman in his car, a man who hung a noose in his office and a man who harassed women. Tran even blamed the Me Too movement in court documents.

“Bottom-feeding trial lawyer Derek Tran’s shameless comments showed he will do anything for a buck. By doubling down on these despicable cases, Tran reminded Southern Californians he’s a liar profiting from abusers.” – NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen
