Two former longtime New York federal prosecutors whose past cases include securing last year's sex-trafficking conviction of singer R. Kelly have started a new law firm focused on civil rights and sexual misconduct matters.
Shihata & Geddes was founded by Elizabeth Geddes and Nadia Shihata, former assistant U.S. Attorneys in the Eastern District of New York. The firm will represent criminal defendants and handle internal corporate investigations, civil rights audits and wrongful conviction cases, according to its website.
Shihata said one of her most notable cases was when she helped convict Eugenio Perez, a Federal Bureau of Prisons lieutenant, for sexual assault in 2019.
