Law Firm Files Half-Million Dollar Claim Against Michael Jackson’s Estate

Los Angeles, CA, United States (CNS) – A law firm has filed a creditor’s claim against Michael Jackson’s estate, alleging that the King of Pop never paid them for legal services over three years.

According to TMZ, the law firm of Venable LLP are demanding $471,103.56 for legal advice given to Jackson “on a broad sprectum of matters” from the period of September 2006 to June 2009, when he died. Whatever kind of advice is worth half-a-million dollars, it better have been good.

Unfortunately, it’s not the first law firm to come forward seeking money from Jackson’s estate. Los Angeles-based firm Mesereau & Yu filed a claim last year for $341,000 for services rendered during his 2005 trial for child molestation, where he was found not guilty.
