Bill Crocket, a partner in the law firm representing Church boutique (Tough As Nails LLC) tells RadarOnline.com in an exclusive statement, “Filing suit was the last thing we wanted to do, but after six months of not being paid, my clients were left with no choice.
“They started this business from scratch, and that they have been successful in attracting an elite clientele does not mean they should be abused.”
According to the documents filed on Wednesday, Lohan “established a relationship with Plaintiff (Lindsay Lohan) and on various occasions purchased clothes, jewelry and accessories” in a period spanning from “in or about November, 2009 and continuing through February, 2010.”
