Celebrity lawyer Michael Avenattii has been arrested on charges related to an alleged $20 million extortion of the athletic apparel company Nike, federal authorities said Monday.
A press conference is scheduled to discuss the charges against Avenatti in Los Angeles on Monday afternoon.
Avenatti had represented porn star Stormy Daniels in her lawsuit against President Donald Trump and his former lawyer Michael Cohen.
The charges were revealed less than an hour after Avenatti announced a press conference to discuss claims against Nike.

Well extortion was his calling card. His whole strategy with Stormy Daniels was to extort money from Trump. That was an epic fail.

Become your own lawyer and you’ll have a fool for a client. Hire a shyster like Avenatti and you’ll have a DAMN fool for a client. What’s the difference between Avenatti and a rooster? The rooster clucks defiant....

Has there ever been a bigger screwup than this guy?Yep, creepy guy and we recognize it. My issue when I see his name is how the media drooled over the guy when he was attacking Trump.
