Criminal singer Britney Spears has garnered the attention of
fans with her stellar vocals, and her upbeat and retro-themed music. Her
songs have dominated the music charts through the 90s. Apart from
producing hit after hit, the singer has also earned several awards.
Being a famous personality certainly has its downsides and Spears's conservatorship was a major stumbling block in her career. Not just because it was the most talked about issue, but because of the amount shelled out through the last 13 years for lawyers to deliver her justice.
Reports from TMZ revealed how much the singer paid her lawyers over the years and it is truly shocking. The lawyers that represented Britney reportedly earned a whopping $30 Million in the last 13 years, including a startling 4.2 Million by her recent lawyer.
In an interview with TMZ earlier this year, sources close to the singer revealed how much she's spent through the years during the whole ordeal. Britney reportedly paid her legal team from Mathew Rosengart's law firm $4,201,856 between November 2021 through March 2023, after the conservatorship case ended. However, calculations later reveal that the amount comes off to a round figure of nearly $6 Million in the years. The same firm has now agreed to fight a pro bono case against Britney's father Jamie Spears.
In the case of Jamie Spears, the singer accused her father of lining his pockets with "millions and millions" from her hard work. According to the legal documents obtained by Rosengart's firm, Jamie reportedly engaged in self-dealing, financial, and business mismanagement. Accusations further reveal that he also engaged in abusive and bullying conduct of his daughter [Britney] and deprived her of fundamental civil liberties. Reports further suggest that the singer's father must've earned a total of at least $6 Million during the 13-year-long conservatorship apart from millions that were spent to continue the conservatorship.

The conservatorship isn't the only means through which Britney's legal team has earned millions. According to sources, the legal team handles other professional aspects of the singer's life too, such as her other endeavors including her book deal.
Britney's legal team to fight her conservatorship didn't just consist of just one lawyer, several lawyers handled Britney's case. The various lawyer's legal fees in thirteen years can be rounded off to a total of $30 Million, which went entirely for one single ordeal, per reports. At the end of it, the singer had earned a net worth of a mere $60 Million, a lot less than what she started with. But sources close to Britney now reveal that her net worth may be a whole lot lesser than what was initially declared. Rosengart has still not responded to any further comments.
