Nicholas V. Perricone's new anti-wrinkle cream doesn't come cheap -- it retails at Neiman Marcus for $570 per 2-ounce bottle.

Greenwich divorce lawyer Gary I. Cohen is among the state's priciest attorneys. But requiring his client pay him an additional $300,000 "bonus," for a highly contentious five-day divorce mediation in Chicago, effectively ratcheted up his already considerable rate to an out-of-this-world $1,511 an hour, Connecticut disciplinary authorities contend.
