Anna's Lawyers Want Estate to Pay Up

A powerhouse law firm that also represents Britney Spears is seeking nearly $163,000 from Anna Nicole Smith's estate for legal services.
Read the lawsuit
In court documents obtained by TMZ, the firm of Trope and Trope says they provided services to the former Playmate beginning in October of 2006 -- to the tune of $281,000, and only $118,000 has been paid.

A copy of the document has also been sent to the executor of Anna's will, Howard K. Stern.

77. 75. What is the matter with all you people, that bill was from when Anna was alive of course the estate has to pay for it just like when anyone dies and has bills the estate has to pay. Where is your common sense why would a huge law firm risk it all by giving Howard a cut, some people just won't use common sense how dumb do you think these lawyers are, it's a bill that has to be paid and to say that Howard has something to do with this is just plain stupid. Oh and now TMZ is paying Howard give me a break, every time someone files a lawsuit you people warp it into something to do with Howard. How about it is just a bill that needs to be paid!!!

Finally a voice of reason. This is a bill from the lawyers Anna used to fight Larry for custody and probably other things too. This lawyer is Sorrel Trope. Larry's lawyer is Michael trope and he is with a different law firm. All of Anna's out standing bills will be paid with any money from her estate before DL ever inherits. If there isn't enough money to pay her creditors then her assets have to be sold. This is a bunch of nothing and I don't know why TMZ even posted it as they did not post all her other creditors claims. Are you people that stupid that you think the courts aren't aware of who is who of their attorneys? Howard does not get a cut of this bill. He is not part of Trope & Trope law firm.
And Larry has no say over Anna's estate as to what or who he would like paid.

If you want to start a site to support virgie spend some money and do it I am so sick of that woman trying to get everything for free it makes me gag and now you have the nerve to put that garbage on here.It is purely promotional garbage and hopefully TMZ will pull your sad plea for virgie off. Does that woman ever pay for anything?????? now that her cash cow is running dry maybe she will shut up or get a job to occupy her time instead of filing bogus lawsuits

since Howard has been living off of anna for years and dannielynn in the past year, the maggots must be crawling out of your mouth and ears with sickness.

howard has made over 14 million. what has virgie made.

yeah, you must have maggots jumping out of our fingers as your type and running from your nose each time you hold your head down.
