Shaquille O’Neal and his production company, Jersey Legends Productions, are facing a lawsuit by a “longtime acquaintance,” Donnie Wilson.
The complaint, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, alleges breach of contract and labor code violations over an allegedly violated verbal agreement.
Wilson’s attorney, Ron Zambrano, made a strong statement, referencing O’Neal’s past evasion of being served in the FTX class-action suit.
“Shaquille O’Neal certainly can come across as everyone’s best friend, just a big jovial guy – apparently until he owes you money. He hid from attorneys for months trying to serve him in a class-action lawsuit over the bankrupt FTX crypto exchange and his endorsements of the company and now he’s basically doing the same with Mr. Wilson, hiding from his financial obligations,” Zambrano said. “It’s just shameful behavior by a celebrity of his status.”
