🚨 NEW: Nicki Minaj is facing mounting legal troubles as two separate law firms pursue disputes involving hundreds of thousands of dollars in alleged unpaid fees and expenses.
According to Billboard and TheWrap, Los Angeles-based law firm Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani filed a renewed request for a default judgment on November 3, alleging that Minaj failed to respond to its lawsuit seeking approximately $295,605 in unpaid legal fees.
The dispute stems from the firm’s representation of the rapper in a copyright infringement case involving her 2014 track “I Lied.” Although the case ended in a confidential settlement in 2024, the attorneys claim their bills remain unpaid.
Meanwhile, New York-based law firm Kurzman Eisenberg Corbin & Lever is seeking permission to withdraw from a separate lawsuit involving $275,000 in disputed expenses related to Minaj’s 2023 Jingle Ball appearances and Pink Friday 2 promotional activities.
The firm’s attorney cited irreconcilable differences and communication problems, arguing that the attorney-client relationship had become unworkable. Minaj’s defense, however, disputes the reimbursement claims.
Both cases remain unresolved, with hearings scheduled for November 16 in Los Angeles and December 1 in New York.
With two legal disputes unfolding simultaneously, the rapper faces growing pressure on multiple legal fronts.
