Vanessa Hudgens and her former lawyer, Brian L. Schall, were at odds over $150,000 that she owed the barrister for services rendered to the celebrity. A judge sided with the attorney and Hudgens has settled up.
The actress entered into a contract with the attorney back in 2005 and agreed to pay him 5% of the earnings she received from several projects that they had undertaken together. According to the lawyer, she made $5 million on those projects. Somewhere along the way, Hudgens decided Schall wasn’t meeting her needs so she fired him. This occurred long before he could be fully compensated, per the terms of the agreement.
Apparently all of that is behind the young star now. Her legal team tried to get the lawsuit dropped on the grounds that she was only 16 years old when she entered into the agreement. The judge nixed that idea.
Hudgens received some good news along with the bad. The High School Musical feature film has been confirmed.
