Julian Edelman sues friend over $50M sale of business they grew
""When Swissa decided to capitalize on the value he grew on Edelman's back, he cut Edelman out from the proceeds entirely.""
""I've gone to bat for you for years; I helped you build that company and got you a lot of your deals; you couldn't pay me anything?""
""We're best friends and shouldn't say things right now while we're emotional. We'll revisit this at the appropriate time.""
Julian Edelman is suing his former friend Assaf Swissa over the sale of Superdigital, a digital advertising firm that sold for $50 million. Edelman claims he was not compensated despite being a key contributor to the company's growth. The lawsuit states that Swissa referred to Edelman as a partner but excluded him from the sale proceeds. Edelman learned about the sale from another source and confronted Swissa, who promised to compensate him but allegedly never did. The relationship soured despite their close friendship during the business's development.
