SAN FRANCISCO — Tech entrepreneur Nirav Tolia has relied on a small army of lawyers to get him out of jams over the last decade.
The latest to enlist is Palo Alto criminal defense lawyer Daniel Barton, of Nolan, Armstrong & Barton, who said he will defend the Nextdoor.com cofounder and CEO on a felony hit-and-run charge filed earlier this month. Tolia will also need to contend with a civil suit filed by the alleged victim, whose lawyer hopes to use Tolia’s position, and litigation history, against him.
