AceShowbiz - Motley Crue star Vince Neil is refusing to pay the lawyers who represented the rock star in a 2016 Las Vegas assault case.
The singer has denied owing his ex-attorneys almost $200,000 (£155,000) and instead accuses them of overcharging him for years.
Howard & Howard Attorneys, PLLC bosses filed court documents in December (18) claiming they were owed $187,000 (£145,000) and asked a judge to allow them to hit Vince with a lien for the cash, according to The Blast.
They alleged they continued working for Neil on a lawsuit filed against him by a woman who claimed he attacked her outside the Aria hotel in Vegas three years ago.
But in new court documents obtained by the outlet, Neil has disputed the bill from Howard & Howard Attorneys, insisting he was overcharged "based upon his status as a celebrity".
In his response to the 2016 assault lawsuit, Neil demanded the case be thrown out, denying his accuser's allegations.
