The Blast is reporting that Mötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil is fighting back against his former lawyer’s demand for $190,000, with the rocker accusing his former counsel of overcharging him for years.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the Mötley Crüe singer is denying owing his former lawyers the amount and claims their billing was inflated. He is in the middle of disputing the bill from the firm Howard & Howard Attorneys and their billing with the State Bar of Nevada.

Neil believes he was overbilled “for numerous legal services based upon his status as a celebrity. Many of the charges in Howard & Howard’s billing are questionable at best.” He takes issue with a specific bill where he was charged $1,784.50 for 4.3 hours spent on writing a letter relating to the case.
