A lawyers bag

After meeting with one of my clients this morning, I thought that I would take a stroll around the “Stanley.” I love strolling the “Stan,” it is a place of wonderment. There were Neal Hersh, Joe Mannis (as always looking like a million bucks, there is a reason for that look I assure you). Adam Lipsic, working on the look and when you talk to Adam you realize fast that he dam near knows everyone in town. Steven Knowles, was looking upbeat and ready for his next big divorce, Steven and his partner Michael Collum have mastered the “Persian Two Step.” What I was really looking for was some coffee…that would come and soon.

Sitting on one of the benches outside Judge Trent Lewis’ courtroom, who do I see but Lisa Helfend Meyer looking like she has just discovered that her new Chanel suit is a phoney (Lisa was without question the best dressed lawyer at the Stan this morning). Upon further investigation, she was there trying to fix a major problem that someone in her office had lost control of. Lisa was accompanied by Erica A. Swensen, lawyer — one of her firms more brilliant associates, and one that should have a window (unlike one in particular). The major problem was a case that had generated some good fees was sinking and fast, all thanks to Elyse Margolin, lawyer. As Ms. Meyer was sitting and listening, her trunk of gold doubloons were turning to wet buffalo chips. Meanwhile Elyse asked if I wanted some coffee…the answer was “of course” and off we went Starbucks! Thanks Elyse! Elyse and I both laughed as we both thought we had seen the ghost of W.C.Fields…ahhh just an impostor…it was Marvin M. Mitchelson, looking for a retainer.

Representing the other side, as I have indicated, was Elyse Margolin, always a fighter and not one to be kept quiet. Elyse was well rested and ready for battle, I could tell she had that bounce to her step. Along with Elyse was an attorney whose specialty was bankruptcy, aka making doubloons disappear and ladies and gents, when you want it all to stop in a nasty divorce, file for the BK. Elyse appeared thrilled that her clients hemorrhage of cash was going to stop and stop fast, as in first thing in the morning. Folks, don’t feel bad for either of these little titans of divorce, they are both very wealthy and will be wealthy for many years to come. And besides, sometimes it is nice to have a big box of buffalo chips, when used correctly it will make the grass look nice!

What big time divorce lawyer is being schlepped around Century City by that car service with the old Town Cars? Sometimes they smoke like they are running on smelly cow pies. Standby for one of our segments coming up, divorce lawyers with the coolest cars, there are two who are close for first place, amazing rides.

John J. Nazarian Lisa Helfend Meyer and W. C. Fields

During the holidays this year I was invited to some great Holiday and Christmas parties. One of the best, as anything ever done at her house, was Lisa Helfend Meyer’s. Lisa as many know is the brains behind Meyer Olson Lowy & Meyers, Lisa had a dream for herself professionally and also had a dream of where she wanted to live.

The event at The Meyers estate was catered by Chasen’s, yup they are still around and the eats were incredible. The Maitre d’ of the original restaurant was present to make sure all went well, and it did. The famous chili was served in bowls and fresh seafood was piled high for all to enjoy. After the incredible appetizers we were treated to a sit down dinner under one of the most spectacular tents I have seen…don’t forget Chasen’s was in charge of this event and what an evening it was. There were lots of refreshments served all through the evening and of course there was never a need to open a wallet!

(If you are ever a guest at Lisa’s office (Depos- Meetings) you will also be fed as seldom is ever done at law offices. Coffee, Tea, Danish and snacks and a full breakfast is available I am sure if you were to ask, and for lunch there is always a tray of sandwiches and all the fixings…even if she is not fond of you, it is just how Lisa likes it done and her assistant Cary Stanchfield is always watching to be sure it is up to Lisa’s standards)

This estate was at one time the home of W.C. Fields and is nothing short of spectacular. Lisa and her husband Ron had recently completed a major renovation of this Hollywood treasure and it is now even more spectacular. After a very festive evening of dancing and laughing it had to come to an end, leaving all who attended with some great memories. If you are ever lucky enough to get invited to a function at Ron and Lisa’s home be sure to ask if you can see the Golfers Museum, yes, there is also a very fascinating museum on the property…surprised? You should not be, this is were Lisa and Ron live.

Be sure to pay regular visits to Desperate Exes.com for John J. Nazarian’s views of DIVORCE Hollywood style as well as the lawyers who served the rich and powerful in those treacherous waters of property settlements.
