Dillon Danis Lawyers Abondon Social Media Star and MMA Fighter in Nina Agdal Lawsuit

Dillon Danis is gonna need a new lawyer after the attorneys representing him in an ongoing lawsuit filed by Nina Agdal filed a motion to be withdrawn from the case.

According to a report from MMA Fighting, a filing made on September 12 revealed that Danis’ lead attorney Mark Berman filed a motion to withdraw as counsel after repeated issues representing the controversial combat sports star. The attorneys reportedly filed to withdraw based on the “defendant’s failure to comply with the terms of the firm’s retainer agreement” and “a breakdown in communication between defendant and counsel which has resulted in, among other things, counsel’s failure to ensure compliance with court orders.”

Danis’ former attorneys also stated that the ex-Bellator fighter has “failed to pay the firm’s monthly invoices in a timely fashion and has failed to maintain the required retainer agreement” based on the contract to hire them and “this has been a recurring problem.”

“I personally like Mr. Danis, I find this case to be an interesting one and I would prefer to continue representing him,” Berman wrote in the filing. “However, I cannot do so effectively if he fails to respond to my communications and the firm will not allow me to do so if he fails to comply with the terms of the retainer agreement.

“For those reasons, counsel respectfully asks the court to grant counsel leave to withdraw as counsel for the defendant.”
