Is Anita Baker’s Money Funny? Lawyer Sues for $150K Unpaid Bill
It looks like Grammy Award winning singer Anita Baker‘s got some serious money issues or either she just doesn’t like paying her bills.
Detroit’s WXYZ Channel 7 is reporting that it was just a few months ago that Baker’s attorney was telling the 7 Investigators that his client was wrongly accused of stiffing a local painter with a bill of more than $15,000. Now that same attorney says the singer owes him thousands of dollars, and he’s not alone.
“She just does not want to pay,” said Rochester attorney Jamal Hamood. Hamood recently represented Baker. But now he’s suing her for $150,000, alleging she owes him for more than a year of work.
“I was at her beck and call 24/7, she would call me when I was on vacation and she would call me on the weekends, or text me or email me. If I didn’t respond immediately she would become furious,” Hamood told 7 Investigator Heather Catallo.
Hamood helped Baker narrowly avoid a stint in jail back in March when he worked to get a bench warrant that had been issued against her dismissed. The reason for the warrant: a local painter got a default judgment against the singer, accusing her of failing to pay more than $15,000 for work done at her Grosse Pointe mansion.
Dang, not a good look for Anita Baker.
