High profile celebrity lawyer Gloria Allred has disclosed that several ex-girlfriends of Charlie Sheen have contacted her for legal advice, particularly on their 'rights' following Sheen's recent revelation that he is HIV-positive.

Sheen announced on national television that he was diagnosed with HIV four years ago but he hid it from the public, saying he had paid millions to those people he had confided in to keep their mouths shut.

She is currently representing several women who claimed they were drugged and sexually assaulted by comedian Bill Cosby.

Earlier in her career, she took on cases filed against OJ Simpson and several child molestation cases against the late Michael Jackson.

In a recent interview, Sheen said it was 'impossible' that he may have passed on the HIV to any of his sexual partners, saying that he did all things possible not to infect them.

Sheen said he has had unprotected sex since his diagnosis, but he pointed out that only two of the women he slept with with were warned beforehand. He said he had taken precautions according to the advise of his doctor.

Since the interview, numerous women, who claim to have had sex with Sheen, have given interviews to the media.

Sheen said he felt liberated and 'released from prison' after his coming out interview saying that the friends that he confided in turned out to be a nightmare after they blackmailed him and extorted money from him.

He said in the four years that he has hidden his illness, he has paid these people millions just so that they will not divulge his diagnosis to the public.

The actor said he hoped that with the interview, the barrage of attacks accusing him of threatening the health of so many others will be put to a stop.
