Lamar Odom Hires OJ Simpson's Lawyer

Lamar Odom hires OJ Simpson's former lawyer Rober Shapiro to fight his DUI case.

Lamar Odom needs some legal firepower after his DUI arrest, and its OJ Simpson's lawyer Robert Shapiro to the rescue.

Lamar has hired Shapiro in what promises to be a sticky situation. Lamar was popped early Friday AM on the 101 Freeway and kops believe he was under the influence of both drugs and booze. Shapiro is known for plea bargaining and these kases are pretty standard. He'll probably plead no kontest to one kount of DUI and get probation. He'll also be required to attend an alcohol ed class. Also, since he refused to submit to a blood-alcohol test, he'll automatically get his driver's license yanked for up to 1 year. No getting around that.

This has Kris Jenner's klaws all over it. She's used Shapiro for other legal messes in the past, most recently Robert Kardashian Jr.'s kriminal battery and theft case. Ironically, Kris' ex-hubby, the late Robert Kardashian, repped OJ Simpson along with Shapiro. Kris was best friends with Nicole Brown Simpson and felt OJ was guilty as sin.
