    Seems like OLD Mel thought getting a young girl pregnant would bring back his youthful good looks……WRONG!!!! You’re still an OLD man Mel.just a little more pathetic. Hope Robyn CLEANS HIM OUT.Shame on you Mel. STOP CALLING YOURSELF A CATHOLIC.

    From Wall Street Journal Blogs- It is reported that this Press Hound Attorney is being investigated. His business is experiencing financial reversals because he is passe an ineffective.

    Comment : Yes Raoul Felder has found a way to stay relevant as per the Cityfile article. He manipulates the courts, the media because he is “old news”. He need a new way to make money… because everyone knows he has financial problems and the “best and brightest” attorneys in New York avoid him and his firm like the plague. The only people that seem to gravitate to him are dubious Russian contacts and two Manhattan corrupt matrimonial judges. It is reported that Felder and the judges join forces to sink the non-monied spouse to the point where there are no assets left to the matrimonial estate so the non-monied spouse(usually the wife of a rich deadbeat husband) has no options for legal recourse against Felder and the Manhattan Matrimonial Judge nicknamed the “Dragon Lady”. It’s all fun and games for Felder and this Questionably immoral judge and devastating for the mother and the children.

    Raoul Felder Finds a Way to Stay Relevant

    Press-obsessed divorce attorney Raoul Felder has found a clever way to stay in the spotlight in these turbulent economic times: He’s suing the money management firm AllianceBernstein for $5 million for losing $200,000 he invested in a hedge fund based on AllianceBernstein’s advice. It’s been a few years since the 74-year-old attorney has been the center of the spotlight. (His most notable clients in recent years: Rudy Giuliani in his divorce from Donna Hanover, and David Gest in his split from Liza Minnelli. Until, that is, Gest fired him for overdoing it with the press.) But Felder seems to have figured out a great way to take center-stage amid the financial crisis: Sue the firm that managed your portfolio for 25 times what you lost, and then give a dozen interviews about how the system is corrupt and you’re just standing up for the little man.

    “It’s like the owner of a restaurant who tells the wait staff, ‘Push the chopped liver,’ even though it’s spoiled. It may make the customer sick, but they get their money. Anything for money,” Felder told the Post today. “These are very greedy people.” Lest Felder come off as just another disgruntled investor upset about his own losses (like about 10 million other people), Felder says getting his $200K back (plus $4.8 million in punitive damages) isn’t the point of the suit. It’s about teaching Wall Street a lesson: If he wins, he plans to pass the damages on to charity, “maybe to some of these other people who were ruined by the stock market.” We can see it now: Felder walking the streets of Manhattan with a photographer and camera crew behind him as he hands out dollar bills to every person he passes on the street.
