This podcast investigates allegations against Gloria Allred, a prominent women's rights lawyer, focusing on claims from former clients Caroline Wallner and Effie Angelova. Wallner alleges that Allred's firm pressured her into a quick settlement with Neil Gaiman, including a non-disclosure agreement, and then prevented her from speaking out later. Effie claims Allred silenced her during a criminal investigation and later included her in a documentary against her wishes. The podcast contrasts Allred's public image as a tireless advocate with these accounts of alleged silencing and high-pressure tactics, highlighting the use of forced arbitration clauses in her retainer agreements. The reporting reveals a potential conflict between Allred's business practices and her public persona as a champion for victims' rights.
