Britney Spears is reportedly in the market for a new lawyer after her longtime court-appointed attorney Samuel Ingham resigned earlier this week.
The 39-year-old pop superstar has her eye set on high-profile attorney Mathew Rosengart to take over the position, TMZ reported on Saturday.
Multiple sources claimed that not only did Spears want Rosengart to take over her case, but she has already signed a document requesting that he represent her.

'Pursuant to my statement in open court on June 23, 2021, my rights, and my desire to end the above-referenced conservatorship as to my father Jamie P. Spears, it is my desire to choose and retain my own counsel, at Greenberg, Traurig, LLP as set forth above,' the document allegedly reads.
She reportedly signed her name as 'Britney Jean Spears.'
Rosengart, who is a partner in his firm, has had a number of high-profile Hollywood clients, including Steven Spielberg, Ben Affleck and his brother Casey, Sean Penn and director Michael Mann, among others.
The lawyer describes his specialties as 'commercial, media and entertainment, and white collar defense litigation' on his firm's website.
He's a well-regarded figure, particularly in the entertainment world, and The Hollywood Reporter placed him on its list of Hollywood's Top 100 Attorney's for 2021 back in May.
