Bert Fields, the Hollywood superlawyer, who frequently employed the disgraced private eye Anthony Pellicano, and his law firm are in talks with prosecutors to try to avoid charges in the wiretapping investigation that has already led to the indictment of at least 13 people. Prosecutors are presenting Mr. Fields and his firm, Greenberg Glusker Fields Claman Machtinger & Kinsella, with what they say is evidence against them, and giving them an opportunity to respond, the lawyers said. Both sides have agreed to suspend the normal statutory limitations that could prevent Mr. Fields and the firm from being prosecuted in connection with some of Mr. Pellicano's actions in years past. Mr. Fields's lawyer, John W. Keker, who has maintained that Mr. Fields knew of no illegal activity, declined to comment.
