Former Mayfield Attorney Hasn't Been Paid

((HT: CBSSports))

Bill Diehl, the hot-shot attorney from Charlotte, represented Mayfield following his May suspension for failing a random drug test. The two split last month when Mayfield hired celebrity attorney Mark Geragos.

Diehl, at Talladega Superspeedway for Sunday's race as a guest of team owner Rick Hendrick, said he would not discuss the reason for the split.

When asked if it was true that Mayfield had not paid for Diehl's work, the attorney confirmed he's still seeking payment.

"I will get paid," said Diehl, who charges $1,000 an hour. "Jeremy has been told he needs to pay us."

Diehl also contradicted his own statements in open court and said that Mayfield isn't as broke as he says...

Mayfield recently put almost all of his belongings on the auction block. The auction, scheduled for Nov. 20 in Catawba County, N.C., lists 475 acres of land, a home under renovation, jewelry, guns and cars from Mayfield's personal collection.

However, Mayfield told a North Carolina news station that he's holding the auction for fun, not necessity. Here's the Jennifer Moxley story from News14...


Gee, someone not paying a lawyer for poor services...
There's a first...
But it does make you wonder about the whole broke-not broke thing...
