Another blow for Opri
TMZ.com

Judge to Opri — You Get a Big Fat Zero!

Attorney Debra Opri just got shut down in her latest attempt to catch a fee.

Opri repped Pamela Bach, The Hoff’s ex, for a few months in the ongoing divorce saga. Opri’s bill — $189,000! Opri was fired on June 18. She then filed a motion asking the court to order The Hoff to pay her attorney’s fees.

Today, the judge signed an order rejecting Opri’s motion, ruling that Pam never gave her permission to go after The Hoff for the fees. Of course, you ask, why wouldn’t Pam want David to foot the bill? — she’d be off the hook.

We’re told Pam is angry at Opri and doesn’t want her paid, period. Ouch.

Pam is currently being repped by celeb lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan, K-Fed’s mouthpiece.

Here’s the legal doc

Attorney's are going to think twice before taking on these "insane" clients. They deserve to be paid. It's how it works.

It ALMOST looks like Opri is on a hit list.. The JUDGES keep nailing her.
