Hello everyone, I'm currently involved in a legal dispute with my former employer John Lee. Mr. Lee runs the Dizzy Gillespie Bands. I was the musical director from 2005 - 2008. I'm being represented by Harvey Mars, Esq. of NYC and Tom Olcott, Esq. of Dumont, NJ.
I'm seeking your help, by way of donations to cover my legal expenses. Since 2009, I have "suddenly" been unable to secure steady and meaningful employment, resulting in financial hardship for myself, my family, and any potential business aspirations. I feel like a country that's been placed under "economic sanctions". Due to legal restrictions, I can't divulge more details regarding my case than I have already stated.
I have devoted my life to music, I have helped countless young musicians, as well as given financial support to many of my contemporaries...I have been there when needed. In spite of this, there are those who feel they have the right to "take it away"...as if they have blessed me with my God given abilities. I want to prove them wrong...as it stands today, I can only do this with with your help...yes, you. Hopefully, this will reach as many people as it can, in saying this, any and all donations are greatly appreciated. Every single dollar will make a difference.
