Tom Brady Pushed Crypto to His Fans. This Lawyer Wants Him to Pay Up.
Advertising Partner Jeffrey A. Greenbaum is quoted in the article, “Tom Brady pushed crypto to his fans. This lawyer wants him to pay up.” published by The Washington Post. The article discusses the collapse of the cryptocurrency trading platform FTX and a proposed class-action lawsuit seeking to hold Tom Brady, his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen, and other celebrity endorsers of FTX responsible for luring investors into a bad deal. Jeff is quoted saying, “Celebrity endorsers can be held liable in false-advertising claims, but the Federal Trade Commission has typically been the main enforcer.
