The law firm that has represented Jamie Spears for the past 13 years during his daughter Britney Spears’ conservatorship - Holland & Knight - have dropped him as a client over concerns that Briney’s attorney will soon sue him once the conservatorship is finally terminated.
“Litigator Mathew Rosengart has asserted numerous times that he is going to investigate and sue Jamie,” says the source. “If/when he does, Jamie will need to defend and likely be adverse to parties in the conservatorship.”
“Vivian told Jamie he'll need a different litigator and that she and H&K weren't interested in that role - so Jamie authorized Vivian to help him find a strong litigator, which she did,” says the source.
On Oct. 15 Jamie filed court documents to have Alex Weingarten, a partner in Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP's litigation department, replace Vivian L. Thoreen, a partner at Holland & Knight, as his attorney in his daughter's conservatorship case.
Though Jamie and Thoreen are going their separate ways, the source says “Jamie is pleased with the work done” by Holland & Knight and that “he and Vivian remain in close touch during the transition.”
