Ken Rosenfeld | California Criminal Defense Attorney
She has done tremendous work to advance mental health causes.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (PRWEB)

Implemented in 2008 following the pop star’s series of mental breakdowns, Britney Spears’s conservatorship granted her father Jamie Spears legal control over her business and financial decisions, her personal assets, and her estate. Earlier in August, Spears asked for her father to be removed as sole conservator of her estate. When exploring the various legal and mental health aspects of Spears’s proposed change on Times Radio on August 20th, 2020, Matt Chorley requested the input of Rosenfeld, a California criminal defense and mental health criminal defense attorney.

Appearing on the air as a legal and mental health expert alongside a psychologist and a show business journalist, Rosenfeld provided the program with an explanation of legal conservatorship, also known as legal guardianship, including the entities involved and the powers a legal conservator might have. Rosenfeld went on to explain the legal aspects of making changes to legal conservatorship, particularly in light of Spears’s mental health state. He also provided the largely British audience with an explanation of American HIPPA regulations regarding the privacy of mental health diagnoses. Rosenfeld went on to offer commentary on the law in light of society and mental health issues, and on the impact Spears has made in de-stigmatizing mental health issues.
“She has done tremendous work to advance mental health causes,” said Rosenfeld of Spears’s willingness to bring her mental health issues into the spotlight.
Supporters of the #FreeBritney movement feel that Spears was coerced into, and is being manipulated by, the legal conservatorship. In the hearing on August 19, the judge ruled that the conservatorship would continue in its current formulation through February 1, 2021.
