The rude New York man who ripped a woman’s wig from her head was fired from the law firm he worked at. Leader Berkon Colao & Silverstein LLP released a statement condoning former associate Anthony P. Orlich’s actions and elucidated he no longer worked with the firm.
“We have been made aware of a video of a non-work related incident involving one of our associates circulating on social media,” the company wrote. “We take seriously any inappropriate behavior by any employee, whether inside or outside the workplace. This associate is no longer with the Firm.”
The firm removed Olrich’s profile from the site and his name from the “our team” list.
The victim, musician Lizzy Ashliegh hasn’t come forward with a statement and said she couldn’t say more about the situation because she decided to take legal action.
“I am unable to say more at the moment as I move forward legally,” she wrote in a TikTok post. “I appreciate everyone who identified, called and emailed! Once I receive an update, I can share, trust and believe I will. Thank you again. I am currently being educated realistically on next steps.”

News Onyx previously reported that Orlich, for no reason, yanked Ashliegh’s wig from her head, and she began filming the aftermath, where his friends pleaded for him to apologize, which he refused to do. The incident happened in New York City around 1 a.m. on Monday.
“Sir, for what f**king reason? For what reason? For what reason did you take my wig off? Because what made you think that that was the good thing to do? For what?! For what?! Why did you do that?” The singer and Netflix production assistant repeatedly asked Olrich, who continued to smile as if he did nothing wrong and as “for what” when the former lawyer was told to apologize.
