The Game is in a serious feud with the wrong gang of homies -- the lawyers who saved him from 5 years of hard time.
The legal team who repped the rapper in the wake of his 2007 arrest on gun charges claims Game never forked over $34,683.90 in bills for the work they did.
In the suit, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, the firm, Kinsella Weitzman Iser Kump & Aldisert, claims they even got the guy "a successful outcome."
... and since Game was facing a potential five-year sentence in state prison ... and only ended up serving eight days ... you'd think he got his money's worth.

The Game's cousin wants the rapper to be coffin' up some serious cash -- and it's all over an alleged beat down that occurred at a freakin' funeral last year.
Robert Kirkwood just filed a lawsuit in L.A. County Superior Court, claiming the The Game and four others assaulted him at his sister's funeral in July of '08.
The suit says the throwdown -- straight out of a Jerry Springer Halloween Special -- started when Robert confronted The Game because the rich rapper wouldn't pay for a part of the funeral costs.
Robert -- who hilariously refers to The Game in the suit as someone who "fashions himself as some kind of rapper, gangster and/or celebrity" -- says he suffered "severe and permanent injuries" during the alleged fight.
Robert is suing The Game -- along with the four other people he claims took part in the fight -- for medical expenses, loss of income and general damages.

The Game has pissed off his fam bam -- big time! His family says the rapper had promised to finance part of his cousin's funeral -- but when it came time to pay up, they got stiffed!
Robert "Kirky" Kirkwood tells TMZ that when his sister died, The Game -- who he says is his first cousin -- volunteered to pay half of the $14k it cost to bury her. But after making the commitment, Kirky says The Game changed his phone number and went underground!
That's when the blood started to boil ...

4) The Goo Goo Dolls Have Just GOTTA KNOW: Why don't Van Halen and David Lee Roth get over it and put Van Halen back together?
It seems as though David Lee Roth has let go of any ill feelings he may have been holding against his former band mates. TMZ's Jeff Davidson reports that Roth was pleading to do a reunion tour with Van Halen. Unfortunately, Van Halen didn't feel the same. As for Van Halen -- according to their spokesman -- they're just wondering why the Goo Goo Dolls and George Tutuska (their original drummer) can't "get over it" and get him back in their band. Hmph! To see the question asked straight from The Goo Goo Dolls themselves, click here!
5) Erin Has Just GOTTA KNOW: I saw on "106 & Park" that The Game was engaged to an actress who played in "Road Trip" and "Remember the Titans," but I can't remember her name. Who is she?
Marriage may be the next topic for The Game (Jayceon Taylor) to rap about.... well maybe not, but he has announced his engagement with actress Valeisha Butterfield. Taylor gave his bride-to-be a 19-carat engagement ring and the two chose March 22 of next year as the date to officially seal their future together. Butterfield, who has had played in "Road Trip" and "Remember the Titans," said she was "just as surprised as everybody was." For more marriage proposals, take a look here!
6) Jen Has Just GOTTA KNOW: Is 'N SYNC still a band?
The pop band 'N SYNC has been on hiatus since 2002 after the release of their album "Celebrity." Although it seems as if they have called it quits, no official "they aren't together" has been released. Since their break, two members have come out with projects. Justin Timberlake just released the single "SexyBack" on July 7 (off his second solo venture), while JC Chasez is also in studio recording his second album, which can be expected late summer/early fall of this year. Lance Bass became a cosmonaut, however a trip way up north has yet to be accomplished due to financing. He is, however, focusing on his film production company Bacon & Eggs. Joey Fatone has tried his hand out at acting and has appeared in such flicks as "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" and "The Cooler." And Chris Kirkpatrick has been recording with his other band Nigels 11.
