Britney Spears’ former lawyer voices support for her

Britney Spears’ former lawyer Mathew Rosengart just voiced his opinion after the pop star’s arrest on suspicion.

The 44-year-old singer was taken into custody by California Highway Patrol on March 4 in Ventura County following multiple 911 calls - but was released the next morning.

She is scheduled to appear in court on May 4.

Rosengart previously represented the Criminal hitmaker amid her conservatorship battle in 2021 and she later gushed that he was a “wonderful” attorney.

“It was my great honor to work with and protect Britney as her litigator and I will always be proud of her and the work we did together,” he began in a statement to the Daily Mail.

“Ranging from helping, at her request and direction, to restore her freedom, civil rights, and civil liberties after a 13-year conservatorship that stripped her of those rights, to many other matters,” Rosengart added.

He further mentioned, “While I do not have the facts concerning March 4, with freedom comes responsibility, and I was pleased to see that Britney will take the right steps and comply with the law.”

The lawyer also voiced his support to the songstress and said, “I'll always care greatly about her and support her in any way I can.”

Rosengart worked closely with Spears amid the battle to end her 13-year conservatorship, which officially concluded in November 2021.

Later, in 2023, he also helped the musician score a deal to release her memoir, The Woman In Me.

Then, in 2024, Britney Spears paid a special tribute to the federal prosecutor on social media following her “mental health crisis” at the Chateau Marmont.

“This man is wonderful! He's like a father to me and he got me through last night! I adore you and admire you mister Mathew!” she shared at the time.

Mathew Rosengart later reacted to her message and exclusively told the Daily Mail, “I was surprised and very flattered by the post, and the feelings are mutual.”
