Now the Toxic singer has allegedly asked attorney Rosengart to investigate the shocking claims made against her dad in the New York Times documentary Controlling Britney Spears, which include reports he monitored his daughter’s phone and other devices.
Former security manager Alex Vlasov said in the documentary, which premiered last month, he was hired by Jamie to set up the mirroring of Britney’s phone and other electronic devices. He alleged that Spears’ father was in constant communication with the team, which was surveilling the hitmaker’s every move.

On Friday, sources told the Daily Mail Rosengart is planning to grill Jamie and the pop star’s former manager, Tri Star employee Robin Greenhill, about alleged “financial mismanagement and dissipation of funds” and “the monitoring and recording of her phone and placing a listening device under her bed”.
“Now that Matt’s had the big victory (removing Jamie Spears as conservator)…, he’s deposing Jamie Spears and looking into Tri Star (the company formed by another former manager, Lou Taylor) and Robin Greenhill in particular,” the insider shared.
“He will be subpoenaing and taking the deposition of Robin Greenhill. It will be coming up in approximately the next 30 days.”

Rosengart is also reportedly trying to establish why his superstar client’s estate is now worth a mere $60 million (C$75 million).
“It would be (looking) into alleged financial mismanagement – $60 million net worth is smaller than one might think it would be,” the source added.
