Court reduces Lively's legal fee award in Baldoni case
A US judge has ordered Blake Lively to receive $363,245 in attorney fees and $44,206 in costs from her legal dispute with Justin Baldoni, far below the $8 million she requested. The judge ruled that while her lawyers' rates were reasonable, the number of hours billed was excessive and documentation incomplete. The settlement of the underlying case was reached in May, leaving only the fee dispute to be resolved.
