Lisa Bloom

Lisa Bloom is an American attorney known for representing clients in high-profile cases, often involving sexual harassment, assault, or discrimination. She has represented figures across the political spectrum. Bloom is newsworthy currently due to her representation of Lonna Drewes, who has publicly accused U.S. Representative Eric Swalwell of sexual assault in 2018. Drewes, with Bloom as her legal counsel, held a press conference detailing her allegations, which include claims of being drugged and raped. This development is significant because it adds another layer of controversy to Swalwell's career, following his recent exit from the California governor's race and announcement of his resignation from Congress. Bloom's involvement brings her experience in handling sensitive and highly publicized cases to the forefront, potentially influencing the legal and public perception of the accusations against Swalwell.
