'Clearly, she is someone who can have that conversation and is able to handle a fair amount for herself,' an expert attorney says of Britney Spears, based on her testimony at this week's hearing.

gave an explosive testimony earlier this week, addressing the court publicly for the first time in the nearly 13 years she has been under a conservatorship. The hearing was a momentous step in Spears’ contentious and perplexing legal battle, with support continuing to build for the pop star as fans around the globe call to #FreeBritney.

“I didn’t know I could petition the conservatorship to be ended,” Spears told the judge on Wednesday afternoon. “I’m sorry for my ignorance, but I honestly didn’t know that.” Ingham has represented Spears since 2008 when her conservatorship began, following her public breakdown that played out in the press. After Spears delivered her remarks to the court, Ingham told the judge he would resign from the case, if that was her wish.

You read Britney Spears’ full testimony. Based on your expert opinion, does she sound like someone who needs to be under a conservatorship? He must not have known what she was going to say. You can’t totally control what your client is going to say. But the questions that I would have for her attorney are, “Did you have a conversation with your client? Did you know in advance what she was coming to court to ask for? And if so, why wasn’t that paperwork filed with the court before that hearing?” Now, it is certainly possible that it’s not his fault that the paperwork hadn’t been filed.

If her father does not agree and they go through with a full trial, if I were her lawyer, I would probably ask the judge for a temporary deviation from the conservatorship — something that gave her more rights, in the interim.I don’t know what all of those rights would be, but certainly, as a 40-year-old woman, if she wants to have a child, they should be removing that. You don’t want to end up in a three-year trial and then she can’t have a baby anymore.

Frequently, the judge will want to hear from the conservatee. I think that the judge really wanted to get a feel for this. The judge needed to give her an opportunity to have her voice heard. Yes, I think they should be. I think the court will appoint an investigator to look into those items, whether a petition to terminate the conservatorship is filed or not, because there are some things that are so alarming that I think the judge will feel absolutely obligated to have an in-depth investigator spend time to try to make sure that they are treating her humanely.

She needs an advocate.

That's it? Get rid of the conservatorship, then investigate.

All of them should get investigated, her family , managers ,lawyers. Whole 13 years of investigation. Who got rich on her. How much money they made out of this shit and the abuse ohhh doctors too rehab senter. This shit is so bad.

Parenting...the world's biggest problem.

Yeah. But literally the corruption is at the root of this conservatorship. And everyone involved is only out for themselves, and not Britney.

The things she did were 10+ years ago. She's Healthy. Fit. Clean & Able to speak her own mind. She's a grown woman. Who doesn't need her dad, sister or mother making her decisions. FreeBritney She is fighting for her Freedom. Not to make another album or sales. Leave her alone.
