Britney Spears' Lawyer Fees Top $2.7 Million

Being a lawyer for Britney Spears is quite the industry. The total of Britney's legal fees and costs since February 2008 tally up to over $2.7 million according to papers filed in court. Since Britney's father became her conservator, she's paid $409,849.21 to Andrew Wallet, of Hinojosa & Wallet who is a co-conservator. Jamie Spears and Wallet were made permanent conservators last October.

The papers do note that Britney is doing well currently both in terms of her relationship with her sons and in her career. While the documents did not reveal the full amount of Britney's wealth or how much money she has made since she got back on track but it could be argued that all the lawyer and conservatorship fees might actually be worth the cost.

Britney may have also added some money to her accounts in the form of sold real estate. Her home in the Summit area of Beverly Hills recently was on the market for $7.9 million but has dropped out of the MLS. Perhaps she finally has a sale on her hands.
