$700 an hour.
That's what just ONE of the lawyers in Britney Spears' custody battle cost.
$700 an hour!
And Stacy Phillips is claiming Britney hasn't paid the $338,414.87 she's owed for just a couple months of work. That number is after courtesy deductions and $75K she expects to receive next month. Britney's camp is balking at the number, but Stacy says because she handled all the conservatorship stuff, her legal work was very complex and took up a lot of hours.
BUT $700 AN HOUR???! For a child custody case?
I mean, is she turning Sean and Jayden into solid gold? What the hell is ANYBODY doing for $700 an hour? That's more than Tara Reid paid her plastic surgeon. Clearly I need to go to law school.
