Todd Merer
Todd Merer, a New York University Law School graduate, boasts a four-decade career in criminal defense law. Throughout his tenure, he specialized in representing individuals facing drug crime allegations, particularly those extradited from Latin America. Notably, his clientele included prominent figures such as leaders of the Cali Cartel, the Pablo Escobar family, the Bogota Cartel boss, and Colombian associates of El Chapo.
Drawing from his wealth of experience, Merer authored The Extraditionist, a widely acclaimed novel that achieved best-selling status and earned recognition as an “Amazon Book of the Month” selection. This literary triumph captured the attention of industry luminaries, leading to its optioning by Alexandra Milchan, co-producer of The Wolf of Wall Street, with direction by Oliver Stone. Additionally, Merer wrote a compelling sequel titled The White Tigress, inspired by his advocacy for Asian defendants embroiled in the “China White” heroin trade.
