Hunter Biden said under oath that his family is financially struggling, according to reports about a dispute over an unpaid legal bill totaling about $17 million. The testimony was given as part of a legal fight involving fees owed for legal services, though the available reports do not provide full details about the underlying case or the parties seeking payment.
Other outlets reported that Biden described his financial circumstances in similarly stark terms, saying his family did not have money and that he was too broke to own a car or a phone. The statements were presented in the context of his argument over the legal fees and his ability to pay them.
The dispute highlights questions about Biden’s personal finances and the obligations associated with his legal representation. It remains unclear from the reported information how the bill was calculated, what portion has been paid, or how the court will resolve the disagreement.
