Lindsay Lohan owes lawyer $300 000 in unpaid fees

'Liz & Dick' actress Lindsay Lohan reportedly owes her former lawyer $300 000.

The actress recently sacked Shawn Holley and replaced her with New York based lawyer Mark Heller but the troubled star is said to owe a substantial sum to Shawn.

A source told RadarOnline: "Lindsay owes Shawn over $300 000 in legal fees and she hasn't made any payments to her in over six months. Lindsay hadn't paid anything for any of the work Shawn has done on her three new criminal charges of lying to cops, in connection with her car accident in Santa Monica last summer.

Shawn has kept Lindsay out of jail for over five years now and she has no idea how good she has had it. Shawn is extremely respected by judges and prosecutors and that has benefited Lindsay greatly. Lindsay's new criminal attorney, Mark Heller, isn't even based in Los Angeles and certainly doesn't have the revered reputation that Shawn does."

It has been claimed that the actress, who recently received money from Charlie Sheen to pay her tax bill, may not be paying her new lawyer.

The insider added: "I suspect that Lindsay's new attorney is either representing her for a reduced fee, or not charging her at all. I think Mark wants the publicity that representing Lindsay Lohan can bring."
