Johnny Depp has sued his own attorney claiming that their law firm along with his former manager fleeced $40 million of his wealth, according to reports on TMZ.com.

The actor’s suit claims law firm Bloom Hergott Diemer Rosenthal LaViolette Feldman Schenkman & Goodman, LLP conspired with his financial managers, The Management Group (TMG) to fleece him.

The Pirates of the Caribbean star says that the law firm had ties with TMG, which took out enormous loans unbeknownst to debt and secured by the actor’s movie residuals. When the residual payment were made to Depp, they were diverted to repay the loans.
