Celebratory lunch: George Zimmerman defense lawyers Mark O'Mara, left, and Don West enjoyed lunch at Nello on
Madison Avenue with criminal lawyer and CNN analyst Mark Geragos, rightGeorge Zimmerman’s lawyers were spotted dining at one of New York’s most expensive restaurants on Wednesday, just days after securing a controversial not guilty verdict for their client.
In the run-up to the recent court case the defense attorneys Mark O'Mara and Don West regularly asked the public for donations towards Zimmerman’s legal costs but money certainly wasn’t an issue as they enjoyed lunch at Nello.
The exclusive Upper East Side joint is well known for being ‘absurdly expensive’ and is typically a hangout for celebrities – such as Jay Z - and wannabe socialites.
The party was spotted drinking champagne before sitting down to lunch at the Italian restaurant.
Joining them for their celebratory lunch was criminal lawyer and CNN analysis Mark Geragos, who has been a regular fixture on the channel throughout the case and was highly complementary of their work.
