Vanessa Hudgens still owes $150,000 to her attorney, according to the lawsuit. Hudgens says she was only 16 when she signed the interim agreement, so she feels it will not hold up in court.

Hudgens has paid some but not all of the money owed to Brian Schall, the attorney who filed the lawsuit alleges, he helped the actress earn more than $5 million by advancing her funds for her songwriting and recording career.

Evan N. Spiegel, Hudgens’ attorney, says California’s Family Code that a contract with a minor is voidable and may be disaffirmed before the age of 18 or within a reasonable time afterward.

Vanessa was a minor when the formal contract was signed in October 2005, and Hudgens officially disaffirmed the contract on October 9, according to court documents. A copy of a two-paragraph letter from Hudgens to Schall nullifying their agreement is attached to her court papers, as is a copy of her birth certificate, which states that she was born December 14, 1988.

The court papers also say the mutual agreement was with the law offices of Schall, not with Schall himself. The timing of the lawsuit is also in question as Schall filed it within days after the nude pictures of Vanessa were discovered on the Internet.
