Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil is facing a legal battle with his former lawyer over allegations he owes $62,000 in unpaid legal fees.

Partners at California-based firm Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton claim Neil racked up the big bill in 2008, using their services to negotiate entertainment and corporate agreements. Neil has yet to respond to the lawsuit, reports Blabbermouth.net.

The singer is currently preparing to record his new solo album, Tattoos n' Tequila, which is due for release in spring 2010.

When asked recently about the much-anticipated record, Neil told The News Tribune, "Its rock 'n' roll. That's it. It has nothing to do with Motley Crue. Tattoos and tequila is basically my life."
