full title --- Christine Blasey Ford's lawyer resigned from his law firm because partners objected to his decision to represent her
During Thursday's Kavanaugh hearings, one of Christine Blasey Ford's lawyers, Michael Bromwich, stated that both her counsel are representing her pro-bono. Bromwich also resigned from his law firm — he served as senior counsel at Robbins, Russell, Englert, Orseck, Untereiner & Sauber LLP — because some of the partners objected to his decision to represent Ford. Bromwich, a Harvard Law graduate and former federal prosecutor, was known before this hearing for assisting the investigation of the Iran-Contra affair. During Thursday's hearing, Rachel Mitchell, the Arizona prosecutor employed by the committee, pressed Ford on the nature of her legal representation, possibly in an attempt to portray her as being guided by more powerful Democrats looking out for the interest of the party. As Ford attempted to address the key points of Mitchell's questions, one of her lawyers jumped in. "Both of her counsel are doing this pro bono," Michael Bromwich told the committee. "We are not being paid. We have no expectation of being paid."
What Bromwich did not mention was that he not only was not being paid for his time representing Ford—he also left his job at a Washington law firm where he served as senior counsel.
According to Bloomberg, Bromwich, 64, resigned from Robbins, Russell, Englert, Orseck, Untereiner & Sauber LLP, as some of the partners at the firm had objected to his decision to represent Ford.
Bromwich, a Harvard Law graduate and former federal prosecutor, was known before this hearing for assisting the investigation of the Iran-Contra affair and, more recently, for representing former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, who was fired in March by Jeff Sessions

BS—As long as he generates billable hours, he could represent any lowlife that comes down the pike.
If not getting paid, what was that envelope Sheila Jackson lee handed him at the hearing.
The video is all over the web.
Looked like a payoff to me.
She also had a second envelope.
Don’t worry for him, some other RAT firm will scoop up this lying POS really soon.
Future DA sponsored by Soros

A decision was made several months ago that the firm and Mike would part ways, and his final day had been set for next month, when we will move offices. When Mike notified the firm of his opportunity to represent Dr. Ford, we mutually agreed with him to accelerate his departure date. That was done to ensure that his efforts would not be colored by or in conflict with the firm’s substantial work before the Courts of Appeals and the Supreme Court. Any inference to the contrary—including that Mike was forced to leave the firm because of his desire to represent Dr. Ford—would not be accurate.
Michael Bromwich, the attorney, is ALSO the attorney representing fired, disgraced Dep FBI Director Andrew McCabe:
He’ll get more money from Soros.
They all fantasize that THEY’LL be the ONE that takes Trump down.
Big whoop. He’ll go right back in a week.
Read something somewhere that said he is bankrupt.
= = =
Probably is.
And probably has lots of money.
IIRC, Feinstein recommended the attorneys...cuz the little, shy girl didn’t know anyone. BS...
Must have been expecting a big payday...

Why? He's got a Sorosfundme.
“We thought she would never show up until all these promises of more $$$ would be on their way if she would come to the Swamp in D.C. to testify.”
I always thought she would show.
traditional workplace rule:
No Show - No Dough
For the past 25-30 years, one of Rush’s throw away remarks has been:
Follow the MONEY
I guess this atty finally gave up following Ambulances
I read that some of the partners did not want anything to do with this case. Must’ve been enough to force his resignation, but he’ll probably be rehired when the dust settles.
How convenient
Was the letter dated or left blank?
George Soros will make them all Rich beyond their wildest dreams. Want to be Rich? Just say something bad about Trump!
