That year, the attorney successfully defended the CEO of Tesla Motors in a defamation case. Spiro later represented Musk in a lawsuit involving Tesla\u2019s shareholders and the acquisition of SolarCity. In 2022, the lawyer helped Musk again when he took control over X (formerly known as Twitter). Spiro also reportedly played a role in the company\u2019s legal team.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-7\">In 2023, Spiro defended Musk in a securities fraud case, and Musk was found not liable in the end.<\/p>\n<h2>Alex Spiro Is Defending Mayor Eric Adams<\/h2>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-8\">After federal agents raided Adams\u2019 residence, <a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/feature\/where-is-gracie-mansion-inside-nyc-mayor-eric-adams-residence-5323769\/\" data-analytics-trigger=\"article-body-link\">Gracie Mansion<\/a>, to seize his phone, Spiro released a statement assuring the public that his client would have \u201chappily turned\u201d it into the authorities.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-9\">\u201cThey send a dozen agents to pick up a phone when we would have happily turned it in,\u201d Spiro said. \u201cFederal agents appeared this morning at Gracie Mansion in an effort to create a spectacle (again) and take [Adams\u2019] phone (again).
