Britney Spears Wasted Half-Million Dollars on LawyersBritney Spears spent nearly 500,000USD on lawyers to reach settlement with Kevin Federline.
Britney Spears' recently resolved custody dispute with ex-husband Kevin Federline wasn't just messy, it was expensive.
Court documents show legal bills submitted on behalf of two law firms who represented Britney Spears total more than $466,000.
That's on top of the $250,000 the 26-year-old pop singer has agreed to pay Federline's attorneys.
The largest bill comes from attorney Stacy D. Phillips, who says in court filings that she is owed nearly $407,000 for four months of work.
Attorney Laura Wasser, who took over the case in June and negotiated an agreement between Federline and Spears' camp that allows the singer more time with her young sons, is seeking $60,000. She worked on the case nearly two months.
Spears and Federline were married in 2004 and completed their divorce last July. She pays him $20,000 a month under an agreement finalized in July.
To think, love doesn't come cheap to Britney.
