Same guy that prosecuted Oliver north.

Attorney Michael Bromwich, one of the high-powered lawyers representing the woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault, is working for her for free, The Washington Examiner reported.
Bromwich over the weekend joined forces with the two other lawyers representing Christine Blasey Ford.
He told Bloomberg that he resigned from the law firm Robbins, Russell, Englert, Orseck, Untereiner & Sauber because some colleagues opposed his decision to represent Ford.
Melissa Schwartz, a strategic communications consultant also on Ford's team, told the Examiner in an email that she and Bromwich are not being paid.
"We are both working pro bono,” said Schwartz, who is chief operating officer at the Bromwich Group consulting firm.
Bromwich, a former federal prosecutor, led fired FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe's legal team, at one point raising around $570,000 for McCabe's legal fees, the Examiner noted.
Ford's two other lawyers, Debra Katz and Lisa Banks, did not respond to the Examiner's questions about whether they are paid.
Ford is set to testify about the alleged assault alongside Kavanaugh on Thursday. She went public last week with accusations that Kavanaugh pinned her down and groped her over her clothes during a high school party in the 1980s, an incident that she says has caused her decades of emotional trauma.
Katz is known for her work representing victims of sexual harassment and abuse. The law firm where she and Banks are partners, Katz, Marshall & Banks, specializes in civil rights, employment discrimination and sexual harassment.
“I have immense gratitude for the advocacy and intelligent counsel provided by Debra Katz and Lisa Banks during these very challenging weeks,” Ford said in a Sunday statement to The Washington Post.
The New Yorker on Sunday published allegations of a Yale classmate that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her during a dormitory party.
Same guy that prosecuted Oliver north.
Someone probably is behind him financially. He is not doing this out of the goodness of his heart.

Sure you are. There wouldn't happen to be a contract in your safe deposit box that will net you and your partner in crime there (because let's face it, slander and perjury are crimes and you're aiding and abetting) a significant payout from some high-end democrat/socialist/fascist operative...
In other words, they are not getting paid - now. I guarantee you there is paper somewhere that promises them and Ford huge payouts a few months down the road once they are out of the spotlight.
They should be working for nothing because there is nothing there.
They are getting free publicity to bolster their otherwise miserable careers.
And everything a Lawyer does for free should be considered Taxable Income to the person receiving the Monetary Gift.
Book deal.
‘Pro Bono’ means professional work done voluntarily & without payment. It means one thing when a judge assigns a lawyer for an indigent case, but this is a case for the perpetuation of the ‘Deep State’ and LEFTist control. I find this pro bono work less than significant except in proving the above!
Like hell they are. They are political operatives. The left is fond of using courts for their agenda to ram it down peoples throats.
yeah. sure.
Her legal case is so strong and compelling.
I guess that is supposed to make us think she must be telling the truth.
FREE = a new boat somewhere, titled in a trust. Some money orders sent to pay her kids’ college bills... Prepaid world cruise, just show up and enjoy....
I doubt that. He’s getting something. It may not be a pay check from Ford but he’s getting something from someone today or in the future.
Free? BS. Has been promised something. Guaranteed.
Wow. With no lawyers to pay what is Christine going to do with all that GoFundMe money? Last I check she was well past her $150K goal and still accepting donations! Who say she has “no reason” to lie about her claims?
Thank you!
Three accounts. Over $400,000 and counting
Maybe!
It is not free, the Bolshies will be getting that much less.
