Today, Loevy + Loevy filed a federal lawsuit in Honolulu on behalf of Ian and Shawn Schweitzer, who were framed for the high-profile murder of tourist Dana Ireland in 1991. loevy.com/press-release-…
Kirstin Blaise Lobato, who spent nearly 16 years in prison for a murder she did not commit, was awarded more than $34 million by a federal jury in Nevada on Thursday. nyti.ms/4gyNRwx
Read the full press release about the verdict here: loevy.com/kirstin-blaise…
“Blaise has been through more in her life than a dozen women should be asked to survive, and she has come out of it tough, and fierce, and stronger than ever," says attorney Megan Pierce. "We can’t wait to see what she does..now that she’s free to put all this behind her.”
Today, Kirstin Blaise Lobato (seen here with her Loevy legal team) was awarded $34 million by a Las Vegas jury in her lawsuit against the police. This is believed to be the largest award ever given to a wrongfully convicted woman in U.S. history.
Congratulations to Ms. Lobato and her amazing attorneys @dowens2000, Liz Wang, and Megan Pierce from @LoevyandLoevy! A monumental verdict for a monumental injustice!

Loevy + Loevy is looking forward to taking this case to trial and securing long-overdue justice for the terrible wrongs done to Mr. Melock. Read more about the case in our press release here: loevy.com/press-release-…
In 2015, the jury in a similar lawsuit--against Waukegan, John Reid, and many of the same detectives--awarded a wrongfully convicted man named Juan Rivera $20 million in damages. At the time, this was the largest award ever to a single wrongful conviction plaintiff.
In 1989, Robert Melock, 22, was on trial for a horrendous crime: the rape and murder of his own grandmother. The story made for sensationalistic headlines, and Mr. Melock--portrayed as a monster--was sentenced to death. There's just one problem: he didn't do it. 1/5
In a first-of-its kind decision, a federal judge has ruled in favor of our client @theintercept, by allowing a claim to move forward against OpenAI for violating the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Read the full press release here: loevy.com/press-release-…
