Career and Professional Life
After graduating from law school, Brian Adesman worked at an AmLaw 100 law firm for over five years as a litigator. His practice primarily focused on complex commercial litigation, professional responsibility litigation (legal malpractice defense), and international dispute resolution. During his time at the firm, Brian Adesman achieved many major successes, including winning an international arbitration, where he and his trial team successfully argued trademark claims worth over $300 million following a five-week arbitration in Montreal, Canada.
Eventually, Brian Adesman left Big Law to start his own firm, Miller Adesman, PLC. Brian Adesman is known for taking powerful institutions and people to task in court. In 2021, Brian Adesman filed a class action lawsuit in federal court against health insurance behemoth, Aetna Health Insurance, alleging that “in administering the Aetna Plans, Aetna treats mental health as less important than physical health.” Regarding the lawsuit, Brian Adesman was reported in the media saying, “Insurance companies are not above the law and profits can’t come before people.”
That same year, Brian Adesman sued Caesar “the Dog Whisperer” Milan. In that lawsuit, Brian Adesman alleged that Mr. Milan’s dog, Junior, killed Queen Latifah’s dog and that Mr. Milan covered it up, claiming the dog was hit by a car. Until that lawsuit was filed, this information had never come to light in the press. Mr. Milan later publicly denied the incident occurred. In response, Brian Adesman reportedly made the following comments to the press:
Basically, as lawyers, we have a duty to investigate any potential case that we’re going to file in court. And we’re also considered officers of the court and we have an obligation to make sure that any claims we allege are supported by evidence, and that they’re not frivolous, and that they’re not untrue.
And so, before we draft and file any complaint in any case, we will investigate the surrounding circumstances. That can entail a bunch of different things, up to hiring private investigators, or interviewing witnesses, or talking with people who were around the scene at the time of the incident.
And [the fact that Junior Killed Queen Latifah’s dog] was something that we uncovered and definitely corroborated with lots of evidence. And it’s currently, it’s something that they deny, and that Cesar Millan has denied ever since the story broke. But I can assure you that I have seen the evidence and we feel very confident in making the claim that the incident did, in fact, happen.
Brian Adesman is known for being equal parts aggressive and creative in his approach to litigation and trial. He is also known for providing unique insight into complex legal issues as a legal correspondent.
