Dannielynn

Debra Opri filed legal papers this week to compel arbitration between her and her former client Larry Birkhead. (She says he owes her money – he claims she is withholding HIS money.) Naturally she spelled out every personal detail she knew about her client that could possibly embarrass him. We guess by revealing all these things in a legal document she doesn’t feel responsible for lawyer-client confidentiality. Opri claims Larry earned two million dollars selling baby photos to a photo agency and not only refused to pay her, but refused to pay his lawyers in the Bahamas. She says she had to prepare Larry’s one bedroom apartment in Burbank so it would pass inspection by social workers before he was given custody of Dannielynn. Opri says the place was filthy and “unfit for an adult, much less a child.” She had people clean it up, buy towels and sheets and childproof the place. Most interesting was the fact that Opri says a mystery roommate named “Byron” was living at Larry’s place. When Opri told Larry this Byron would have to pass a background check and be fingerprinted before going near the baby, Larry moved him out and would never mention him again. Opri accused Larry of conniving with Howard K Stern behind her back and described him as having “mood swings.” She said Larry used to surf the internet for stories about himself and if they were unflattering, he’d call Howard for advice on what to do. It adds up to around forty eight pages of personal insults and it’s shaping up to be an entertaining legal battle.
