The forensic financial advisor assigned to investigate Rudy Giuliani’s finances during his recent bankruptcy case has responded to Giuliani’s attempt to reduce the fees owed. Global Data Risk (GDR) had requested over $300,000 for their work, but Giuliani filed documents seeking to cut the fees by almost half, claiming he was overcharged.
In the response, GDR criticized Giuliani for launching a baseless crusade to avoid paying the fees. The firm highlighted that Giuliani actually received a great deal considering the circumstances, with a discounted hourly rate. Despite the dismissal of the bankruptcy case, Giuliani continued to oppose GDR’s fee application, causing frustration due to his behavior during the proceedings.
GDR emphasized that Giuliani voluntarily filed for bankruptcy and is responsible for paying the administrative expenses, including professional fees. They pointed out that the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors had provided their services pro bono, and GDR had agreed to a reduced hourly rate. Overall, GDR stated that Giuliani received an incredible deal on the fees.
