Lively’s attorney, Sigrid McCawley, addressed the press outside the courthouse. She emphasized that Lively’s motivations extend beyond financial gain. Lively aims to make a statement and impact young women facing workplace harassment.
Given McCawley’s statement, a settlement appears unlikely at this stage. However, like Freedman, she acknowledges that it cannot be entirely ruled out.
