We’re excited—and a little amused—to share that Albertson & Davidson LLP has been featured in a recent piece by Kaitlyn Tiffany for The Atlantic: “Who Reads Entire Lawsuits for Fun?”.
Tiffany’s article explores the unexpected online fascination with the ongoing Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni lawsuit and how a mix of lawyers, influencers, and content creators have helped elevate the case into a social media phenomenon. Our own Keith Davidson and Stewart Albertson were among the professionals interviewed for the piece, offering their perspective as probate and trust litigation attorneys who also happen to have a budding YouTube channel—Ask 2 Lawyers–where they break down legal news, celebrity lawsuits, and everything in between.
We’ve been covering the Lively-Baldoni legal saga since early on, including what we believe are major credibility issues, eyebrow-raising subpoenas, and some serious questions about the legal tactics being used. That coverage, through our podcast Ask 2 Lawyers and our activity across all social media, has resonated with a surprisingly large audience. Turns out, people really want to understand the law—especially when it’s wrapped in Hollywood drama.
In Tiffany’s words, our videos are “breathtakingly boring,” which, oddly enough, might be the highest compliment we’ve received and could be our next merch design. After all, breaking down a dense subpoena or discussing a procedural move in a lawsuit may not be TikTok-ready at first glance, but it turns out there’s a huge audience craving clarity and credible insight—especially from lawyers who don’t sugarcoat the facts.
What Kaitlyn Tiffany did so well in her piece was capture the quirky corner of the internet where law meets pop culture. She brings a sharp eye and sense of humor to her reporting, and we’re genuinely honored to be included alongside other legal creators who are helping shed a little more light on how to make the law accessible to everyone.

Thanks again to Kaitlyn Tiffany and The Atlantic for the feature—and to our audience for sticking with us, even when we’re being “breathtakingly boring.”
