Legal fees in the case of the bankrupt crypto lender Celsius are skyrocketing.

According to newly available information, the fees earned by Celsius’ lawyers and advisors are now on track to total more than $140 million.

@CamCrews posted a link to a Google doc with detailed lawyer fees showing that Kirkland Ellis — one of Celsius’ lawyers — is expected to earn $48.8 million in fees, with $31.7 million billed through December 2022.

Meanwhile, White & Case is projected to earn $28 million — with $20.9 million billed through January. The third-ranked law firm in earnings is Alvarez & Marsal, with projected fees of $15.7 million showed $11.8 million billed through January.

Beyond the Celsius case, such high numbers highlight the substantial amount of money involved in legal proceedings relating to fraud cases. While it is essential for legal professionals to be compensated for their services, the high fees can create additional hardship for the victims of fraud who may already be struggling with financial losses.
