Former mem- bers of the Baltimore indie rock Milkshake group Love Riot, the duo switched gears in 2002 to reflect the new focus in their lives brought abOut by having children.

When Holocaust denier David Irving sued historian Deborah Lipstadt for libel in Britain, Julius quickly offered Lipstadt his services and told her he would represent her for free if she (or her publisher) couldn't pay him. Lipstadt credits Julius with put- ting together a brilliant trial team that destroyed Irving in court.
