Litigation

Holtz Matthews LLP’s founding partner, Jordan Matthews, served as lead counsel in landmark litigation against Steve Wynn, representing the primary witness in The Wall Street Journal’s exposé regarding Wynn’s alleged sexual misconduct. The case contributed to Wynn’s resignation and a $10-million fine in 2023, removing him from the gaming industry. Matthews fought for five years against aggressive defense tactics, filing a civil RICO case against Wynn and Wynn Resorts, coinciding with DOJ litigation over Wynn’s alleged FARA violations. He argued the case before the Ninth Circuit in 2022. His work aligned with legislative changes like the Adult Survivors Act, expanding legal options for sexual assault victims. Matthews also represents or otherwise handles clients in high-profile disputes, including litigation against fitness celebrity Deja Riley. He also represents entertainment figures like Brian A. Metcalf and Alexis Varouxakis.
