Her litigiousness was so excessive that, on 5 March 1987, the High Court declared her to be a "vexatious litigant", preventing her from commencing any further legal actions without the permission of the Court.

In 1988 following bankruptcy proceedings she lost her home in Bray, to which she returned the following night to recover her love letters from Roger Moore.

While working in the East End, Squires worked at a club which gave her the name Dorothy, which she liked and used on stage after that time.

In 1973 she was charged with high kicking a taxi driver who tried to throw her out of his cab. She was also one of several artists charged with allegedly trying to bribe a BBC radio producer as part of a scheme to make him play her records; the case was dropped.

In 1972 she took out a libel action against the actor Kenneth More for mistakenly referring to Mattioli as Roger Moore's "wife" when he was still legally married to Squires.
