Also known as Tiger Woods’ “Alpha Mistress,” Uchitel hired Allred to represent her in 2009 as the cheating scandal heard ’round the world broke. Allred helped strike the $10 million settlement deal between Woods and Uchitel in 2010, which included a confidentiality clause for Uchitel. The deal happened mere hours before Uchitel was set to hold a tell-all press conference about her affair with Woods. The huge settlement sum was not enough for Uchitel, though. In July, she threatened to sue Allred for selling her out for the money. Allred vehemently denied the charges, although Uchitel had recently returned millions of dollars in hush money to Woods after his lawyer, Jay Lavely, claimed she violated their confidentiality agreement. The case remains unresolved. Allred also represents Joslyn James, a pornographic actress reportedly once involved with Woods.
