Lawyer's Fame-Claim: Model Client
A 23-year-old model who filed suit yesterday against her 54-year-old billionaire ex-boyfriend, over “bizarre and unnatural sex acts” allegedly performed at his 51,000-square-foot New York City mansion when she was 16, is in capable legal hands.
“Literally!” exclaims New York magazine in a gossipy rundown on Maximilia Cordero’s legal representation in her case against her ex.
That’s because Cordero is represented—as the New York Post told the world in a front-page article today—by her current boyfriend, William Unroch, a 57-year-old lawyer who runs a model management agency while simultaneously maintaining a general civil and criminal law practice.
And that’s not all he does, according to his law firm’s Web site. “Mr. Unroch is a true Renaissance man,” it recounts, citing his work as a fashion photographer, his ownership of “the largest saltwater reef tank in Manhattan” and his star-studded social life, among other accomplishments. Additionally, it notes, Unroch “is a great lover of animals and on sunny days can often be found strolling through Central Park with his two dogs, Mary Elizabeth [and] Little Man, and his talkative African gray parrot, Big Bird.”
Investor Jeffrey Epstein, the defendant in Cordero’s case, may soon be facing additional civil lawsuits after his agreement to plead guilty to soliciting underage prostitutes at his Florida estate, the Post reports.
But Epstein’s lawyer, Gerald Lefcourt, says Cordero’s suit is likely to be dismissed because the statute of limitations has expired.
