# Website Change Evidence & Who Made the Changes

*Litman v. Goldberg — nathlaw.com modifications*

---

## Department Attribution Change (Mechanical vs. Commercialization)

**Captured.** At least one Wayback snapshot shows Richard Litman's bio listed under the **Mechanical Department** (or Electrical-Mechanical-Chemical Engineering) rather than the **Commercialization and Licensing Department**. Most snapshots show Commercialization.

**Why it matters:** Another modification to Litman's profile — someone changed the department attribution. Supports the theory that the firm actively edited his web presence.

**Included:** `wayback_nathlaw_richard_litman_2023-01-15_mechanical_check.png` — Jan 15, 2023 capture for department comparison.

## What We Have (Screenshots)

| File | Date | What it shows |
|------|------|---------------|
| `wayback_nathlaw_richard_litman_2023-01-15_mechanical_check.png` | Jan 15, 2023 | Department attribution check (Mechanical vs Commercialization) |
| `wayback_nathlaw_richard_litman_2025-06-21.png` | June 21, 2025 | Litman as "PATENT ATTORNEY" — **no "Retired"** |
| `wayback_nathlaw_richard_litman_2025-07-08.png` | July 8, 2025 | Still "PATENT ATTORNEY" (no Retired) |
| `wayback_nathlaw_richard_litman_retired.png` | June 25, 2025 | Earlier post-change capture |
| `wayback_nathlaw_richard_litman_2025-08-23.png` | Aug 23, 2025 | Capture from Wayback Machine if needed |
| `wayback_nathlaw_professionals_2025-09-05.png` | Sept 5, 2025 | Litman **removed** from professionals page |

**Timeline:** Between June 21 (no Retired) and July 8 (Retired) — someone changed the live nathlaw.com page. Your July 8 Google shot confirms the change had happened by then.

## Getting the Actual Page (Not Just Google)

**Wayback Machine** is the source for the actual archived page. We captured:
- **July 8, 2025** — `wayback_nathlaw_richard_litman_2025-07-08.png` — this is the **actual page** as it appeared, with the Wayback header proving the capture date.

Google only shows a snippet; the Wayback capture is the full page. You now have both.

## How to Find Who Made the Changes

The website change is **attributable to whoever controls nathlaw.com**. To tie it to Goldberg or show his involvement:

### 1. Discovery (once in litigation)

- **Interrogatories:** Who has administrative access to nathlaw.com? Who approved or requested changes to Richard Litman's profile in June–July 2025?
- **Document requests:** Emails, Slack/Teams, or project management messages about updating the website, Litman's status, or the professionals page.
- **Depositions:** IT, marketing, or website manager; Goldberg; firm management.

### 2. Public / pre-litigation leads

| Source | What it might show |
|--------|---------------------|
| **WHOIS / domain registrar** | Registrant, admin contact for nathlaw.com |
| **Website footer / "Built by"** | Agency or developer that maintains the site |
| **LinkedIn** | Marketing, IT, or web roles at Nath Goldberg Meyer |
| **CMS platform** | Many law firm sites use WordPress, Webflow, etc. — discovery can target who has admin access |

### 3. Inference from role

- Goldberg is **Co-Managing Partner** (from assignment documents).
- Managing partners typically control firm branding and professional listings.
- That supports an inference he directed or approved the change; discovery would test it.
