Larry David, the creator of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm, has revealed that former friend and legal ally Alan Dershowitz "made a deal with the devil" when he took on the role of Donald Trump's lawyer. Dershowitz, a Harvard law professor, has represented Trump, Jeffrey Epstein, OJ Simpson, and Harvey Weinstein, among others, in his career.
The two were once close friends, living on Martha's Vineyard, but a public argument in 2021 led to Dershowitz calling David "disgusting" and cutting off all contact. In a recent Atlantic profile, David disclosed this incident for the first time, explaining that he rarely engages in confrontations outside of his show. Dershowitz, however, expressed hurt that David did not reach out after the loss of Dershowitz's son, Elon, to a stroke.
David acknowledged his regret for not contacting Dershowitz but maintained that Dershowitz's actions were his own fault.
