Heather Mills will reportedly represent herself during some of the court hearings in her divorce battle with estranged husband Sir Paul McCartney.
The former model apparently dispensed with the services of her barristers in an effort to keep her legal costs down but will continue to use the legal firm Mischon de Reya to handle the battle over money and the custody of her daughter Beatrice aged three.
A legal source stated, "She has to be careful about the size of her legal bills and by representing herself she is able to cut down on the costs."
