Help me clear my name

As most of you know I have been put in a predicament that has nearly destroyed my life 
As a proud guy I never reach out to anyone for help 
This is extremely embarrassing for me to ask my friends for help but I need it 
I have already spent over $30k on legal fees our life savings gone 
I need to raise $55k by November 1st to fight this legal battle that I shouldn’t be in 
I’m reaching out for the first time in my life to all my friends far and wide for help 
obviously all funds go directly to my legal counsel 
I’ll be forever grateful
