New York City has tapped a star lawyer, whose clients include Elon Musk and Jay-Z, to represent Mayor Eric Adams in a lawsuit accusing him of sexually assaulting a fellow transit cop over three decades ago.
Alex Spiro, a partner at the Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan law firm, was hired by New York City Law Department to serve as co-counsel in the case against Mr. Adams, a Manhattan Supreme Court notice submitted Monday said.
