Blake Lively's request for nearly $8 million in legal fees has become one of the most closely watched aspects of her ongoing legal battle with Justin Baldoni. While the court has yet to rule on the request, legal insiders claim the figure has already sparked strong reactions. According to legal sources, several attorneys believe the amount is unusually high and may not hold up in court.
Reports state that Lively is seeking nearly $8 million in attorneys' fees and litigation costs after resolving her lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. However, legal insiders believe the request has become a major sticking point. Some attorneys have even questioned whether the amount is realistic.
One veteran civil litigator told Naughty But Nice that the figure is "wildly aggressive." The attorney added that simply asking for millions does not mean the court will award the same amount. In fact, the source suggested the final figure, if approved at all, could be much lower.
Meanwhile, other attorneys argued that the issue is more complicated than it appears.
"The headlines make it sound like Justin Baldoni would be paying Blake Lively millions," one attorney said, further claiming that it is an "oversimplification."
