Lindsay Lohan Hires Robert Shapiro; New lawyer admits Lindsay has a "disease"

Former O.J. Simpson Attorney Robert Shapiro made it official as he announced that he is representing Lindsay Lohan in her legal troubles and will try to push an option to Judge Marsha Revel to prevent his client to land behind bars.

The 24 year-old controversial actress recently entered Pickford Lofts on Wednesday, sober house founded by Shapiro after his son died of a drug overdose in 2005.
In a statement, “I have agreed to represent Ms. Lohan on the condition that she complies with all of the terms of her probation, including a requirement of jail time that was imposed by Judge Marsha Revel.”

“Ms. Lohan is suffering from a disease that I am all too familiar with. Hopefully, I can be of assistance to Ms. Lohan and Judge Revel in implementing a treatment approach recommended by medical professionals for Ms. Lohan’s long term recovery and sobriety.”
Lindsay's lawyer will try to convince the court that Lindsay needed rehabilitation and minimal jail time and not the full 90 days.
