Wasser to Britney -- You're Someone Else's Problem Now

Posted Sep 17th 2007 11:20AM by TMZ Staff

Laura Wasser and Britney Spears TMZ has learned Britney Spears is losing her lawyer.

At a hearing in the ongoing Britney Spears/K-Fed custody war that is just about to start, disso-queen Laura Wasser will submit legal papers formally withdrawing as the singer's attorney. Sources say Spears' new lawyer will be high-profile attorney, Marci Levine.

The word we hear is that Britney was a problem client because she just didn't listen to and follow the advice Wasser gave so Spears could maintain custody and end the war.

In spite of Spears' erratic behavior and stint in rehab, Wasser was able to hammer out a 50/50 custody split with K-Fed -- a small miracle. Now Federline wants 70/30 custody. It ain't Wasser's problemo no more!

UPDATE: TMZ has learned that celebrity attorney Mel Goldsman will handle Britney's case along with Marci Levine. Levine didn't appear in court today due to illness.

91. Honestly, yeah Britany have chosen to be in the public eye. Everyone makes bad choices. As a first time mother of two with in a year is dramatic. Especially to someone that is critized for "farting incorrectly" in front of her children by the public and the media.

I say Brit, it's not okay for the way you are lashing out but everyone makes mistakes. Now just correct them.

Thanks guys.

92. Two children in 3 or so years....has anyone treated this chick for postpartum depression... her antics are erratic, and she's making decisions that no "normal" person would make. Please, get her some psychiatric help before she goes into a psychosis!

98. K-Fed is the lesser of two evils right now. Even if money is his insentive, I am hoping the money will keep him on his toes and hopefully make the boys life his priority. I pray then that Brit has a good time and survives. She needs to live it and get it out of her system so she can establish priorities and realize the boys have to be Number 1. They are a greatest gift she will ever receive. Love you Brit, praying for you.
