Philanthropic group suing Bill Davidson estate

The non-profit Areivim Philanthropic Group Inc. is suing the estate of William Davidson, former owner of the Detroit Pistons.

Areivim claims that Davidson was one of 13 donors who in 2006 pledged to contribute $5 million to the group “to establish a ‘fund for our Jewish future,'” according to the complaint, which was filed in December in Oakland County Probate Court. According to the organization, Davidson had donated $200,000 of the $5 million before his death in March of last year.

Birmingham attorneys Henry Baskin and David Mendelson are representing the New York-based Areivim.
