Much as she has ended up representing aggrieved women in several high-profile situations during the past decade, attorney Gloria Allred now says she's representing a woman who alleges she was sexually harassed by GOP presidential hopeful Herman Cain during his time as the president of the National Restaurant Association.

"The woman," says a statement issued by Allred, "is not one of the three women who have previously been reported to have alleged sexual harassment by Cain."

Allred's media release announces a news conference that will take place today at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (10:30 Pacific), and promises that the woman will give her name, and give a detailed account of her allegations against Cain.

This is the latest high-profile case that Allred has managed to become a part of. Other recent, high-profile Allred clients include Rachel Uchitel and Joslyn James, both part of the Tiger Woods infidelity controversy; Rhonda Miller, who sued Arnold Schwarzenegger for sexual harassment in 2003; Nicky Diaz, former housekeeper of former California gubernatorial candidate and former eBay CEO Meg Whitman; and Jodie Fisher, whom Allred represented in a sexual harassment claim against former HP CEO Mark Hurd.
