Liam Gallagher hires lawyer amid child support battle with ex

Liam Gallagher has hired high-profile lawyer Judith Poller, known as 'Hollywood’s top troubleshooter,' to represent him in a child support case concerning his daughter Gemma, 12, from a previous relationship with Liza Ghorbani. Ghorbani has requested an increase in child support payments, claiming that the current amount is insufficient, especially with Gallagher expected to earn around $64 million from an upcoming Oasis reunion tour. Gallagher, who has never met Gemma, reached a maintenance agreement a decade ago, but Ghorbani's recent motion is set to be heard by Judge Jeffrey Pearlman in New York on April 16, with a follow-up hearing scheduled for April 28 if necessary. Poller, who has represented stars like Scarlett Johansson and Drew Barrymore, has a reputation for being a tough advocate, which may play a crucial role in the proceedings. Sources indicate that Ghorbani's request may be seen as an attempt to capitalize on Gallagher's newfound wealth from the tour, raising tensions between the involved parties. Gallagher has publicly disputed Ghorbani's claims and suggested that he pays significantly more in child support than she has stated.
