Celebrity Justice
Brit's Lawyers Will Quit -- She's Impossible!

Posted Jan 2nd 2008 6:30PM by TMZ Staff

TMZ has learned Britney's latest set of lawyers has bitten the dust.
Read the motion
The high-powered firm of Trope and Trope filed legal papers today asking to withdraw as Brit's hired guns in her custody dispute with K-Daddy.

In the legal papers, attorney Tara Scott from Trope and Trope wrote, "There has been a breakdown in communications between [Britney] and Trope and Trope making further representation of her interests impossible." Ding dang wha?!

No word on whether Brit has a new lawyer.

You may recall, disso-queen Laura Wasser quit Brit last year as well. Representing a popwreck can be a bitch!

UPDATE: Sources tell TMZ the reason Trope and Trope withdrew is because Britney just didn't listen to her lawyers' advice, and her behavior was generally sinking her case.

35. Britney was screwed up WAY before Federline. Remember, that was her SECOND marriage that year. She had been out of control for YEARS before that, PR reps were quitting left and right, just like her lawyers are now.

37. Wow, she goes through attorneys the way people with allergies go through kleenex! Even serial killers can usually hang on to their legal representation. I guess nobody wants to deal with such a high-maintenance, low-class, no-intellect loser!

41. Doesnt anyone in her camp see this girl needs physco help, evalutation!!!! oh my god, are her people to scared to confront this possiblity. She walks and talks and drives around in a daze. The courts should have her evaluated for mental problems, how much longer can this go on. Its getting old and sick. Why doesnt the family get the courts or her ex to get the courts to do a mental health evaluation on her. Obivous there is a miss fire in the brain some where. Or is it easier to watch someone who we know needs help but dont seem to help watch her implode with mental health issues.

44. Q - There are no neoliberal radicals anywhere around here. You are woefully misinformed...I am more conservative than you will ever know, but I have enough sense not to get into it with a hatemonger such as yourself. I wish you peace and intelligence.

45. WOW she really is an idiot. This is a real sick girl and she needs serious help. I hope she does lose those kids she has no business having them and K-fed would be better with them and thats sad too. I'll take them and give them a normal life. I am sooooo sick of reading about this girl I wish she would just go away.
