Lawyer Says Jay Z Didn't Know About the Lawsuit


Last week news broke that Jay Z filed a lawsuit against his former personal chef for leaving the 40/40 club and taking his secret recipe for chicken wings with him [click here if you missed that].

Now the lawyer for the chef defends Jay Z saying he didn't know anything about the lawsuit...

From The NZ Herald 
"The 40/40 management were probably out to get him for one reason or another because they're poor managers," Mike Shand’s lawyer Vik Pawar told the Herald on Sunday.
"I suspect Jay-Z and Beyonce didn't know about the existence of the lawsuit. When they heard about it they were like, 'Mike's a great guy, why is [the] management company suing him? I want you guys to drop this lawsuit.' And that's what happened."
Shand was still a close friend of the two superstars, his lawyer said. "Mike did travel with Jay-Z and Beyonce for many years. They loved him and he loves them."
