The attorney, who previously represented high-profile clients like A$AP Rocky and Donald Trump, told Banfield that Williams' current situation allegedly left her in a predicament worse than that of a "convicted felon under probation", adding:“And that, to me, is the scariest part of this whole thing ... Aside from the fact that she doesn’t have her liberties, her freedom, her human dignity that’s been stripped from her, she’s fine as a human being. She understands what’s going on, and she just wants her life back.”Pop Flop @ThePopFlopLINKWendy Williams scored a 10 out of 10 on a psych examination she took while at Mount Sinai Hospital, TMZ reports.

Calling the report a "lie" and a "disgrace," he further added:"Where is this report when no one’s seen the report because it’s not accurate? She [William] hasn’t completed her medical diagnosis. I’ve spoken to her guardianship. It’s not about medicine. It’s about manipulation. It’s a weapon being used by those who profit. I’ll be quite blunt, profit from keeping Wendy under this abuse of guardianship situation."Furthermore, he alleged that Sabrina Morrissey, Wendy Williams' guardian, leaked her medical report to the press, claiming that his client was undergoing abuse due to her guardianship.“Let’s call a spade a spade, and I’m not afraid to accept responsibility for my words. Of course, it’s Sabrina Morissey. Of course it’s the guardian. Who else would leak? Who else would leak a finding that supports her position, you know?” he said.Wendy Williams was recently spotted at a restaurantWendy Williams was publicly spotted outside a restaurant in New York days after People Magazine reported on her FTD and aphasia diagnosis.
