Celebrity Justice
Opri Will Hassle the Hoff

Debra OpriDebra Opri has made her next move ... and this time she's siding with the mom.

Opri has signed on to rep David Hasselhoff's ex-wife, Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff. The former couple has been locked in a seemingly endless, bitter fight over custody, property and support.

Opri rececently repped Larry Birkheard in two states and two countries in connection with the battle over Dannielynn -- a battle Birkhead has won.

5. mmmmm just wondering how much will Debri charges Pamela Bach? I bet it will be close to million dollars just like she charged Larry Birkhead. I feel so sorry for Pamela but why she chose her of all lawyers in town who will charge outrageous bills.

7. At least Pam was smart enough to get a bull-dog lawyer! She'll fix Hasselhoff for her and probably get her legal fees paid by him in the settelement! Everyone might dislike her, but Opri gets results it seems, otherwise, why does everyone hire her.

10. Opri didnt win a thing for Larry. As soon as Larry was free of this leach of a lawyer, he won... She likes to overexagerate her services when really her prices are the over thing that are over-rated...

Good luck Ms. Hasselhoff, you probably wont get a thing except a huge bill from "Deb"....

Posted at 1:06PM on Apr 30th 2007 by Hasselhoff (MR.) is sure to win

11. Go PAM! Opri gets the job done! Birkhead has never said a word publicly about Opri's bill only TMZ -seems Opri got him a big deal wit NBC to pay for the lobster gift for staying at a private home for free AND a big payday for Larry. Now Larry is spending like a Rockstar!

If I was being stiff'd by The Hoff, I would hire Opri, in a minute!

12. Are we supposed to care about these 2 has-beens? Why is this news?

13. Seems Ms Opri has difficulty figuring out if she LIKES the media or NOT! I guess 2006 and 2007 she is LIKING IT!! hahahahahaha

2005 "I believe that long after the People vs. Michael Joseph Jackson is part of media history, much in the same guise of the O.J. Simpson trial; long after another trial takes center stage in the media, (we will have finally learned to judge the media for what they really are - individuals who really don't know any more than the rest of us, but who feed like locusts across our sensibilities with the agenda of ravaging our better sense of objectivity)."
http://www.debraopri.com/opinion/2005/opinion_6_1.html

2003 "Ms. Opri’s emphasis on the (importance of the “media perspective” )as part of a client's case or cause continues to enable her to offer a unique approach to both her practice and her media career as an analyst."

14. TMZ, I see you are attempting to resurrect Opri's image.

Debra has an insatiable appetite for "being in the LIME LIGHT".

She could have saved Larry hundreds of thousands of $'$ by not getting involved in Florida and the Bahamas, for starters.

Many TV hosts who are also attorneys said she screwed up on the case. It was the Bahamian attorneys (she had no business in Bahama) that had jurisdiction and resolved the paternity issue.

And the GALL of her to charge Larry for her PERSONAL PUBLICIST, of all things. She was USING Larry to raise publicity for HERSELF.

We all know the Criminal $$$$$'$ she charged for extravagant, unauthorized dinners with ridiculous tips she gave and the AUDACITY of charging for even her husband's DIRTY LAUNDRY!!!!!

Debra Opri is as low as they come for the profession of "ATTORNEYS".

She has brought NATIONAL ATTENTION as to why we desperately need to have LAWS enacted to prevent lawyers from over charging clients.

Attorneys are notorious for deliberately over billing from the hours they charge (often way over inflated) to the exaggerated amount they charge clients for expenses.

To top it off, they RUIN your CREDIT and make your life more miserable by being HARASSED by the COLLECTION AGENCY.

We should all write to our President as well as Congress and our Senators DEMANDING legislation to enact laws to protect citizens here in this country from this very problem.

This is way OVER DUE.

15. Opri is a disgusting example of an attorney. She is tacky and a media whore. Attending the funeral with Larry and even consoling Howard was just too much for me. The woman really wants a job on Court TV. Money grubbing thief. Yep, that is what I said -thief. She told Larry Pro Bono. As an attorney I know she knows what the word means then she hits him with bills for everything from a meal for who knows who to her husband's dry cleaning. Hey, I've got a question? She has a husband!!!!! Certainly doesn't fit her personality. I guarantee he is one little meek man or she would eat him for breakfast. Poor man!
