Then years later when things went to shit and Vic lost the case and hundreds of k in legal costs because of Ty's fuckups, Rekieta boldfaced lied in public that he didn't know Ty personally and never officially made the referral, despite his family's ties and streaming and grifting for years with Ty specifically off Vic's situation.
He claimed that he never knew Ty and doesn't know him currently? Really?
Nick went into total lying weasel denial mode after Vic & Ty lost their final appeal because of a clerical filing blunder by Beard's office.
He pretended to have never Beard/had no personal relationship with Beard prior to Mignogna hiring him as counsel despite there being livestream evidence with Beard on stream as evidence to the contrary.
He also tried to retcon his recommendation to Vic to hire Beard as his counsel after the disastrous result. He tried to pretend he simply made a suggestion in passing instead of a personal referral/recommendation and that hiring of Ty's office was completely of Vic's own choosing.
I'm sure there's clips of Nick washing his hands on the whole thing after the disastrous ruling on KF and clip channels, but it's so hard to search the backcatalog of Nick lore.
It's very similar to Nick trying to gaslight his old fans that "Rekieta Law was never a law channel" 18 months ago whenever he was challenged why he stopped covering trials or serious legal happenings. Instead pretending his content had never changed when it slipped in to getting sloppy drunk nightly while blabbering on about sex toys and thinly veiled homosexual innuendo.
Edit: The clips I went back and watched weren't as egregious/explicit as I remembered.
Nevertheless, the point stands that Nick acted as a slimy, unaccountable weasel when the Vic case went bad.
Instead of acknowledging his role in personally profiting off Vic's misfortune and personally recommending an incompetent and unqualified attorney (while being disingenuous about his own family wealth and personal connections behind the referral), Nick gaslit after it was all said and done that "I hardly knew the man" and that "Vic made his own choices, I wasn't his lawyer".
