Lindsay Lohan is reportedly seeking legal protection from her father, because his angry rants against her and girlfriend Samantha Ronson have left her scared of him.

Former convict Michael Lohan has repeatedly rallied against his daughter's relationship with the British DJ, recently describing Ronson as "dark, hideous and a disgusting representation of humanity". The star hit back, claiming her dad "needs to be on medication" - and sources now tell the New York Post she is seeking legal advice to protect herself

An insider tells the newspaper, "(She is) taking out an order of protection. He's behaving so erratically that she's terrified he'll do something to her. She's contacted her lawyer to arrange this."

The source claims Lohan's 14-year-old sister Ali "already has an order of protection against him, as does Dina. No one is speaking with him until he gets help."
