Was Kris Humphries' Attorney Right To Bail On His Client?
For the last year and a half, Kris Humphries, Kim Kardashian and their respective attorneys have battled it out in court over whether the reality star ever loved her soon-to-be ex-husband, whether he should be entitled to any money and whether they should officially divorce or annul the marriage. Laughably, they’re not any closer to straightening the mess out than they’ve ever been, and now, Humphries is going to have to find a new attorney.
According to TMZ, Kris’ longtime attorney Marshall Waller recently informed the judge in the divorce case that he’s parting ways with his client over what he calls an “irremediable breakdown” in their relationship. He didn’t specify exactly what severed the connection, but assumedly, he got sick of Humphries repeatedly asking him to delay the proceedings as long as possible even though Kim kindly asked they get it over with before she gives birth.
Reaction to Waller’s decision has been pretty mixed. Some observers think it was about time for someone to stand up to the NBA player and make it clear he was acting like a complete douche bag. Others, however, think Waller really failed his client by not simply following through on his wishes. It’s not as if Kris wasn’t paying his bills, and since he signed up to represent him, maybe he should have continued with him no matter what.
What do you think? Do you support Waller’s decision to quit, or do you think it was a dick move? Let us know your thoughts by voting in the poll below…
