Britney Spears scores legal win as judge grants her choice over her own attorney

Britney Spears, 39, has won the right to choose her own attorney after former conservatorship lawyer, Sam Ingham, requested to resign from his role. As the hearing to end her conservatorship and have her father Jamie Spears be removed from the legal contract continued on Wednesday, July 14 in Los Angeles, judge Brenda Penny approved her request to decide who should represent her in her on-going battle.
It comes three weeks after her bombshell allegations shocked the world as she delved into her treatment under the 13-year conservatorship controlled primarily by her dad.
Branding it “f***ing cruelty”, the singer is expected to appoint lawyer Mathew Rosengart, a former federal prosecutor who now works for a top-tier Hollywood law firm who, according to reports, was spotted at the court hearing.
This decision was a victory for the pop-star who hasn’t been allowed to have a say in her own legal representation since 2008.
During the hearing, Britney also alleged to the Judge Penny that she had her hair vitamins and coffee taken away from her and demanded her father be charged with “conservatorship abuse”.
