It's All About The Money

Filed under: Anna Nicole Smith

hkssss.jpg

In addition to trying to ensure that he is in control of Dannielynn's finances, Howard K. Stern has also just filed papers in court demanding more money.

Yup, if the estate of Anna Nicole Smith ever cashes in on their lawsuits against the Playmate's late husband, Howard Marshall, Stern is asking for "6% of the Estate's net recovery."

That 6% could end up being millions and millions of dollars!

How is Larry Birkhead feeling about all of Howard's legal maneuvering??

    That is actually significantly less than most attorneys charge for that type of representation not to mention that he has spent years fighting this for her and now her estate. Most attorneys actually charge up to 30% for this type of suit.

    cao is correct. Any attourney who took this on a contigency basis would charge much more. He's been working on this case for years. He deserves to get paid just like anyone else.

  18. googleRONPAUL says – reply to this

    Perez, this is ABSOLUTELY nothing new. Howard stated on the record in court with that weepy judge over the summer, that his fee for the whole J. Howard Marshall estate battle with Marshall, Jr. that his fee was 6%. This is actually a discounted rate, as most other lawyers would have charged upwards of 25%. This is just a re-filing of his fee rate and is standard procedure since the estate would now inherit the money instead of Anna. Duh! Old news.

    this piece of shit i believe like million murdered ann and danny i hope he gets his and im not talking money

    even larry pimps his daughter to the press for millions hes just as bad just not a murderer, alledged.
    why else was anna so adamant about keeping her daughter from larry? hmm makes you wonder
    and virgi one word LEACH!!
    pooor little rich girl dannylyn

  21. TL says – reply to this


    21

    Why shouldn't he get it ?? He was at the Supremem court, he has followed through from the beginning- he has earned it. Despite what people think of him, he DID a job and deserves to be paid for it. And it IS less than most charge.

  22. Jenny says – reply to this

    Anna Nicole Smith - she was beautiful. It's sad to see all this drama happening. The money should go to Danilynn and her dad to help raise her.

  23. Janice says – reply to this


    23

    This guy is such a liar. He was just on Larry King Live last week and he said he doesnt get anything from the estate for being executor, and dosent want anything. The man had a part in the murder of two people, maybe he should be worried about that and he should be getting an attorny for himself

  28. itmaybetrue says – reply to this


    28

    You know that Howard had an agreement worked out with her that he would get the 6% once the law suit came in. Lord knows, that man served his time with her, acting as social worker/enabler/lawyer/father figure to Daniel. I have a feeling that Howard was quite relieved when she died because Anna was probably a huge pain in the ass for him. However, if they had an agreement, they had an agreeement she would pay him for services rendered.

  29. jennzz says – reply to this


    29

    He's worked on this for years,,
    I think he deserves more actually that is not a bad amount he is requesting,,

  30. xoxo says – reply to this


    30

    You do need an attorney to fight for that lawsuit. Why should he work for free if they win the lawsuit? That's his attorney fee. That's fair.

  31. xoxo says – reply to this


    31

    Larry Birkhead isn't any better than Howard. Who cares how he feels. At least Howard has to work for that money, he has to go to court and fight the lawsuit. Larry just sits there chilling and spending Dannielynn's money.

  32. justjak says – reply to this


    32

    OH PLEASE. If Howard needs money he should just release that tape of him screwing the day lights out of a more than willing Larry. And if they don't have the old tape anymore, film a new one, in fact they SHOULD film a new one, so that Howard can Fist Larry in it…NOW THAT WOULD SELL MILLIONS OF COPIES !

  33. rob says – reply to this


    33

    wow. what a piece of scum

  34. JuJuBee says – reply to this


    34

    That is nothing new, before Dannielynn was even born it was already set up to where he would only get 6% And really people that is cheap, especially if she won 500 million.

  35. gem says – reply to this


    35

    Like we're soooo surprised! Anna drugged out when she was pregnant and Howard video taping her is DISGUSTING!! I hope he is investigated thoroughly! It's been all about the money.

  36. Perez licks Sarah stinky twat says – reply to this


    36

    This is rediculous, Howard is an attorney and thats how he makes his money. He has not received any compensation so far for his legal skills on this case. He is entitled to it. Do you peeps work for free?

  37. Perez's Puta says – reply to this


    37

    You know that this guy kept Anna Nicole drugged - while pregnant - just so he could control her every move and spend every dollar. I remember a TV interview she did completely drugged, emaciated, and falling down as Stern - while laughing - dragged her up to her feet. I recall feeling so sad about the entire situation that was clearly under Stern's control and direction.

    Shame on Stern! I hope he is haunted by her memory and his exploitive, selfish actions each day of his pathetic life. Little Dannilynn is blessed not to share his DNA! We know what you did, Howard. We know.

  38. LoliT@_HonDuRaS says – reply to this

    This guy doesn't stop! It will be 10 years of her death and these people will STILL be fighting over MONEY! Greedy people….you can tell him motives

  39. shutup says – reply to this


    39

    he deserves it. he devoted every minute of every day for Anna Nicole and helping her through this lawsuit. He should definitely get something and I'm sure Larry is understanding enough to think so as well. Howard is a good guy. His only client died and he's just asking that his devotion not be in vain. Howard's intention was not to get paid until after the lawsuit paid out, as is the case with many very high profile lawsuits.

  40. Jessica says – reply to this

    gosh he loves dannilynn so much he wants her money too… greedy bastard..sooo happy larry is the father…

  41. tal says – reply to this


    41

    he has worked for years on helping anna recover this money and still is.why should he work for free? 6% is much less than most lawyers would charge.
    he deserves that percentage.he is being very fair.
    you perez…you are such a greedy fuck..you will do anything for money.you are evil for money.you are so greedy and so envious of others.

    While the Virgies and Larrys are selling their stories and selling their photos and are blattant media whores…I appreciate Stern's "fact of the matter" approach behind the limelight. It was her wish to have him handle this before she was dead and should still be her wish now!!!!! Leave Howard alone. Anyone who says differently is a total moron!!!

    56

    Re: CHRIS – Yeah, but the thing is, Anna was in it for the money too. I hate to make a rude remark about someone who has passed, but it is the truth. Even when she had her own reality show Anna was talking to a woman on the street who insisted she (Anna) was being exploited on the show…her response? "As long as I am getting paid!". NONETHELESS, may Anna rest in peace :)

  57. Laurel says – reply to this


    57

    Seriously, Perez, I enjoy your blog, but when it comes to legal matters, you tend to make mountains out of molehills.

    As the estate's attorney and executor, Howard is simply asking to get paid for the work he did for Anna and continues to do for her estate in seeking the money she believed Marshall intended for her to have. 6% is actually an extremely reasonable contingency fee for this kind of work.

    Did anyone watch Geraldo at Large over the weekend? He showed the ENTIRE "clown" video clip! This was to shoot down Howard K. Stern's statement that the 45 second edit of the video was edited to 45 seconds to make her look high, when, according to Howard, she was actually "role playing." WELL, GUESS WHAT HOWARD………….SHE WAS STONED FOR JUST ABOUT ALL OF THE ALMOST 1 HOUR VIDEO!!!! What a liar you are!!!! HE ALSO SAID, THAT VIDEO WAS MEANT FOR JUST PERSONAL USE. Liar again Howard………You were giving "production" notes to someone named Mark!!!! Even said to "turn off the background music because we won't be able to use that!" Also, told Anna to put her boob back in her shirt because they "wouldn't be able to use that footage", also told Anna "tell all your fans hello!"

    If that video was just for their personal video collection, then why all the verbal notes by Howard throughout the video????? BECAUSE HE WAS PLANNING ON SELLING IT!!!!

  63. c says – reply to this


    63

    These negative posts are retarded. Most attorneys take 30% and he has spent years handling this case. He deserves to be paid. It was her wishes to have him execute the will. Why does anybody care anyway. I wonder how many children in the US will go to bed hungry tonight? Oh wait nobody cares!

    What is your problem Perez?!! Stern has been working on that case for TEN YEARS!!! IT IS NO SECERT THAT IS MONEY HE IS AND HAS BEEN ENTITLED DO!!! WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO START SHIT YOU FUCKING IDIOT?! I THOUGHT YOU WHERE COOL!!! YOU ARE JUST TRYING TO START SHIT! YOU ARE A LOSER!!
    Btw, you idiot! you where wrong about Stern trying to get Dannielynn's money! That was money he ws trying to get FOR Dannielynn!!
    Why the fuck do you have a blog if you're gonna get everything wrong?!! Idiot!

    Anyway, a deal's a deal, man!

  66. gem says – reply to this


    66

    Re: DJ – He is a pathetic pig! I believe this was the video that was "stolen" by the owner of the home that Howard and Anna where living in . The owner was trying to evict them because he hadn't been paid. He took items including the video after Anna died. The guy was furious because his daughter was there at the time. Howard was exploiting Anna which is obvious in the video. It shows just how much he loved her!

  70. Chris says – reply to this


    70

    I like the guy and I feel sorry for him. I think his only crime was playing the role of Anna's enabler, and yes, that meant getting her drugs, booze, or anything else she wanted. But I also think that he was head over heals in love with Anna, was exceedingly loyal to her, dedicated most of his adult life to her, and will probably dedicate the rest of his life to her memory, with or without pay.

  71. keri says – reply to this


    71

    Wow are you dumb, Perez. That was their agreement all along. HKS said so in court, during the burial hearing. He said that if they ever saw any winnings in the Marshall case, HKS and a couple of other lawyers are entitled to 6% of the money, each.

    Stop telling your lies when the truth is known. Save your lies for things that can't be proven.

  72. keri says – reply to this


    72

    CLICK THE BLOODY LINK IN THE STORY, PEOPLE. THE filed papers LINK. It explains that there was an agreement in place A LONG TIME AGO between Anna and Howard, that if the Marshall money came through, Howard would get 6% of the winnings. You people are STUPID. You can't even bother to click a link to get the WHOLE STORY before you start bashing.

    IDIOTS.

    73

    I know it's fun to dis Howard K, but he put many years into this legal battle for Anna Nicole when she was alive, and it was his legal maneuverings that still has Dannielynn seeing a possible inheritance that could set her up for several lifetimes.

    What's he supposed to do? After ten or so years of legal battles in which he actually got the case to the Supreme Court, he's just supposed to walk away with nothing for his work?

    It's not his fault that the settlement could be in the hundreds of millions. Actually it may be because of all the work he's done.

    You know, some lawyers ask for 33% of whatever their client gets.

  74. Tianna says – reply to this

    He was intitled to this for being Anna's lawyer. It has nothing to do with her death.
    He was one of her lawyers that has worked on this for years before Anna died.

    77

    As usual Perez, you are twisting the story. This agreement was made a long time ago when Howard and Anna first went after the estate. Furthermore, he is the executor of the estate and Larry has said he is okay with that. So why are you trying to twist everything into a lie?

    6% was a fee established well before her death. It's within the norm for his participation in her case. To be honest, he should have asked for more considering just how much effort he put into it prior to her death, and now after, his involvement will be even more substantial.

    at you trying to make something out of nothing. Rita Wannabe much?

    IIRC, Howard K. Stern is named executor in Anna Nicole's will. 6% is a standard executor's fee for adminstering the estate. There is nothing untoward here. Why create false drama?

    Howard is working so hard with civil suits. He better start covering his ass with a criminal attorney as the CA DA, DEA, and FBI have been working on the illegal way he obtained the drugs he fed Anna and Daniels death. He ASS is in big trouble.

    Ouch! some comments are RUDE!. HK$ "loved" ANS in his own way, and probably had "THOUGHTIES" about her…I doubt that she had any "lovey" feelings for him {unless she was stoned/drunk etc}. HK$ + the Bitches of Birkwick…namely "Dopey" Cosby & Arthur" together with their collective lawyers are OUT FOR MONEY…as are many others exploiting the disgracefull way that ANS lived her life. I hope that Dr. Khristine & HK$ are charged with NEGLIGENCE … letting someone die because of GREED is totally DISGUSTING!!! {Step up Dr. Perper…re-visit your findings…you know that the Hair Samples of ANS WILL PROVE THAT EITHER SHE OR HER "ENABLER" GAVE HER GREATER DOSES OF DRUGS than were prescribed!} ANS DIED because of NEGLIGENCE by those who were mean't to care for her!!!
