Britney Spears got a major relief in her ongoing conservatorship tussle with father Jamie as she was granted permission to hire a new lawyer. She used the popular social media phrase “free Britney” as she posted a happy note: “Coming along, folks … coming along !!!!! New with real representation today … I feel GRATITUDE and BLESSED !!!!”

Britney was given the green light to hire Mathew Rosengart from firm Greenberg Traurig, in a hearing before Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny.

During the hearing, her new lawyer, Rosengart said, “This is not working. We know that. The goal is to end the conservatorship. We have questions if this was even the proper forum back in 2008.”
