Lohan Legal Fees Spent

Lohan Legal Fees Spent, The economy might not be in the greatest shape, but thankfully Lindsay Lohan keeps a select few attorneys in the black. Every week it seems there is a new Lohan-related lawsuit or court appearance, and her legal fees are really starting to add up.

In the latest suit against the actress to hit the news, Lohan’s legal team was tasked with firing off yet another response last month to a Betty Ford staff member who claimed the actress assaulted her when she tried to give her a breathalyzer test in December 2010. Yes, it’s the same rehab staffer who sued Lohan for $1 million for grabbing her wrist and twisting it. Lohan’s attorneys have claimed the actress was provoked and are asking that the staffer cover her legal fees.

But it’s not just lawsuits against Lohan that are racking up her money and her attorney’s time. In late January, Lohan was reportedly threatening to sue RadarOnline over their report she was “slammed” at a SAG after-party at Chateau Marmont.

Is Lohan concerned about her legal bills these days? She probably should be. She may have gotten a nice paycheck from her Play boy cover, but her trips and travails in and out of the court room have likely cost her well over a million of dollars over the past several years, according to some legal experts.

“If you quantify for the past four and a half years she has needed legal representation, you can generalize that with the amount of time, work and legal challenges, probation hearings, court appearances, etc., the legal fees could be no less that hundreds of thousands of dollars and likely over a million,” said attorney Vikki Ziegler.

Lohan has been embroiled in her fair share of legal dust-ups over the past four years, has appeared in court on numerous occasions, and has been sentenced to jail.

In cases like hers, where legal drama is ongoing — more typical of a corporate entity than a single star — the lawyers will request a retainer on top of hourly fees to do the continuing work to keep a case moving through the courts.

“The retainer covers part of the case so that we can get started, but generally not all of the case,” attorney Joey Jackson told The Huffington Post. “The ultimate amount a client is charged depends upon the nature of the case, its complexity, and the work involved (i.e. motions, hearings, trial expenses, etc).”

Lindsay Lohan Legal Fees $1.45 Million, Lindsay Lohan Racked Up $1.45 Million (1.1 Million) in Legal Fees, Being Lindsay Lohan isn’t easy and it’s certainly not cheap. According to a new report, since 2007, when she started on a downwards spiral, the actress has racked up no less than $1.45 million (1.1 million) in legal fees only.

Fans know that, these days, Lindsay is more famous for what she does in her personal life than for her work, i.e. for her movies.

Since 2007, she’s been going in and out of rehab, in and out of courtroom, in and out of jail, and constantly in the headlines.

BooyahFacts is now saying that the entire madness around Lindsay Lohan cost her a pretty penny: a lot of them, to be more exact.

From rehab expenses to fines, court payments and legal counsel, Lindsay has spent an estimated $1.45 million (1.1 million) on getting herself out of trouble.

That is to say, the money she reportedly made by posing for the latest issue of Playboy ($1 million 719,476) wasn’t enough to cover her impressive legal bill.
