There seems to be trouble in paradise for pop star Britney Spears, who is likely separating from her husband of just over a year, Sam Asghari. The singer already has Mathew Rosengart — the Biglaw power lawyer who ended her conservatorship — by her side, but for this unfortunate turn in her personal life, Spears has hired a celebrity divorce lawyer to assist her.
According to Page Six, Laura Wasser, divorce lawyer to the stars, is now a member of the Spears legal team. Here are some additional details:
Why Experience Still Matters In An AI-Driven Legal Industry
A conversation with Trustpoint.One CEO Christopher Gallagher.
Spears hiring Wasser, 55, may not come as a surprise as the “Piece of Me” singer hired the family law attorney when she was fighting her ex-husband Kevin Federline for custody of their two sons, Sean Preston, now 17, and Jayden, now 16, back in 2008. …
The Los Angeles-based lawyer has since taken on a string of A-list clientele, including Kim Kardashian, Johnny Depp, and more recently, Kevin Costner and Joe Manganiello.
Best of luck to Britney Spears as she moves through a potential divorce, but with this dream team of lawyers, she won’t need much of it. We know she’ll emerge from this stronger than yesterday.
