Lawyers Sue Grace Mugabe For Failing To Pay Legal Fees

A law firm is suing former first lady Grace Mugabe for failing to pay legal fees amounting to U.S.$278 000 after they represented her in several court cases involving a U.S.$1,2 million diamond ring deal. Earlier, a South African court made a ruling that Grace Mugabe did not have diplomatic immunity when she allegedly assaulted a model in August 2017. Mugabe made a lot of enemies during her time as first lady, and the door for more legal trouble may now be open for the once feared woman in Zimbabwe.
