Britney Spears' $500k Per Year Conservatorship Lawyer Sam Ingham Will Resign, Hours After Singer's Manager Larry Rudolph Quits

Britney Spears' longtime lawyer Sam Ingham is preparing to walk away from the singer's 13-year conservatorship battle.
According to reports, the Grammy winner's attorney -- who has represented her since 2008 -- is resigning.
Ingham is allegedly preparing paperwork to ask the judge to dismiss him as Britney's court-appointed lawyer.
It's interesting timing considering the Lucky singer's longtime manager Larry Rudolph quit hours prior.
Over the weekend, The New Yorker ran an exposé questioning Ingham's motives in the conservatorship case.
As they pointed out, Spears pays his annual salary of $527,000, which is more than she spends on her own living expenses. In 2019, she paid $438,360 on herself.
Despite his huge salary, Ingham is reportedly ending his relationship with Spears because he's upset with what she told the judge in court.

As Breaking Celebrity News reported, Spears gave an emotional testimony and claimed she never knew she had the choice to end her conservatorship.
Sources connected to Ingham say he regularly gave the singer the option but claims Spears never wanted to make the move.
