A source close to the Hilton family told MSNB that Paris is "furious" with the lawyer and the Hiltons are contemplating legal action.
"The way this case was handled was a disaster," the source says. "Nobody goes to jail for DUI that long. It was all the lawyer's fault and we're looking into what recourse we have."
Hilton's rep denies the story, saying "There is no truth to this item."
