Meanwhile, in a statement to E! News, Travis' attorney Mitchell Schuster said he was confident that his client would be cleared of any wrongdoing. Mitchell said, "While this is clearly a misunderstanding being blown out of proportion by clickbait and misinformation, we are actively working with the venue and law enforcement to resolve and set the record straight. We are confident our client will be cleared of any wrongdoing."

Ritchie Romero, the managing partner of the said nightclub said, "This is blown completely out of proportion. It was a great night."
