Lindsay Lohan's lawyer admits the troubled actress is out of control.

Julia Azrael - who is now co-representing the Mean Girls star after she parted ways with her long-term attorney Shawn Holley - says she doesn't want to be blamed for Lohan's flaky behaviour and says it's impossible to stay in touch with her.

She wrote: "I have made many efforts to convince Lohan to appear for her deposition. I do not know how to reach her directly."

The Liz & Dick star is required to make a deposition in a pending lawsuit, after photographer Grigor Balyan recently filed documents claiming Lohan's been busy partying instead of giving evidence in his case against her.

Balyan claims Lohan's assistant drove into him while leaving a Hollywood nightclub back in 2010, with the Mean Girls actress as his passenger.

Balyan has asked the judge to fine Lohan and Azrael for giving him the runaround.

In the document - which have been seen by gossip website TMZ - Azrael claims she has to go through Lohan's other lawyer, Mark Heller, to get through to her and says Heller's been making it difficult.

As well as this case, Lohan is also facing three misdemeanour counts involving a car crash last June after being charged for resisting, obstruction, providing false information to a police officer and reckless driving.
