High-profile attorney Geoffrey Fieger has filed a second sexual assault lawsuit against attorney Michael Morse.

That employee reportedly signed a complaint with the court. 

According to the complaint, Plaintiff Samantha Lichon alleges she was harassed throughout the course of her employment with the Mike Morse Law Firm.

Lichon claims she was the victim of harassment that included unwelcome comments and conduct of an offensive and sexual nature. She allegedly lived in Hazel Park at the time.

There are also allegations that the plaintiff was physically touched without permission, and claims that Morse groped her breasts on multiple occasions.

Fieger previously filed another lawsuit on behalf of another alleged victim.

In that civil lawsuit, there are claims Morse molested a woman in the back of Steven Lelli’s Inn on the Green restaurant in Farmington Hills.

The lawsuit claims Morse grabbed the woman's breasts.

Morse denied those allegations, claiming the woman wanted a selfie with him.

“This lawsuit is a bogus, manufactured lawsuit, in an attempt to extort money from me by the Fieger Law Firm,” Morse said.

Morse went on to say that Fieger was angry at him because a client of Fieger's fire him and hired Morse. “This lawsuit is complete and utter nonsense, and I will vigorously defend myself against these false claims.

According to Fieger's office, the lawsuit said the victim filed a complaint with the Farmington Hills Police Department and also wore a wire and recorded Morse admitting the actives that are alleged.

The police department says they do not comment on open investigations, and will neither confirm nor deny that there is an open investigation.
