It’s the end of another beautiful relationship for David Gest – he’s parting ways with famed divorce lawyer Raoul Felder.
Felder had been representing Gest in his sensational split from Liza Minnelli.
A source close to Gest quoted him as saying, “Raoul’s a very nice guy, but we’re not trying this case in the press. We’re trying it in court.”
Felder insisted he quit.
“I resigned two weeks ago” he said, praising Gest for his “courage in the face of adversity.”
He said Gest wanted to take the low-key approach because of what happened in “Minnelli’s recent case in L.A.” – a reference to a quietly litigated real-estate dispute she lost.
It ended with the legendary star having to sell her Beverly Hills home for half its worth.
