Michael Cohen is a fraud of a lawyer who works exclusively for President Trump, federal prosecutors charged Friday. “Cohen has told at least one witness that he has only [one] client — President Trump,” the lawyers wrote in court documents, challenging Cohen’s claims that records seized in raids on his home and office Monday should be protected by attorney-client privilege. And he’s barely doing any “legal work” for Trump, either, they claim. “[Reviews of the records] indicate that Cohen is in fact performing little to no legal work, and that zero e-mails were exchanged with President Trump,” according to the brief, filed in Manhattan federal court.

A truth that’s told with bad intent, beats all the lies you can invent.

So this event is an ‘omen of innocence’ for President Trump.
Right. Face to face meetings are the best option
Why do you live in the loser state of Illinois?
Hillary’s law license was suspended in 2002 for failing to meet the continuing education requirements. She is no longer a lawyer.
>> “Barely a lawyer”. That’s like being “barely” pregnant. You are ether are or your not <<
True enough. Once a lawyer, always a lawyer — even if disbarred.
But the same cannot be said of a lawyer’s status as an “attorney-at-law.”
That is, being an “attorney” is not exactly the same as being a lawyer.
To wit,
A lawyer who partners with a businessman to invest mutually in a piece of property is not acting at all points as an “attorney” in the transaction. So certain papers and discussions related to the investment would not be covered by “attorney-client” privilege.
Happens all the time.
Likewise, even though my CPA has a J.D. degree and a valid law license, my discussions with him regarding the routine preparation of my tax return are not covered by attorney-client privilege because during those discussions, he is acting in his capacity as a CPA, rather than as an attorney.

Disagree. Hilary is still a lawyer. But she is no longer an “attorney-at-law.”
If I was a lawyer and had DJT as a single client, I would have all the work I need. And I’m sure it pays very well.
Hazards of jumping to conclusions. Politically-charged grand juries become known because witnesses are not bound to secrecy, if not from outright leaks. Because a GJ is empaneled and investigates does not mean official charges will be made. Allegations dropped or no indictment bills can be for a variety of reasons.
Since when do the Feds get to make a statement like that without some sort of Legal or Bar proceeding? If Cohen is a memeber of the Bar, it really is immaterial how many clients he has. In the upper echelons of the legal community I would imagine that there are quite a number of lawyers who only have a single individual or corporation as a client.
What crap. Lot’s of lawyers only have one client, including in-house corporate counsel, government lawyers, non-profit lawyers, etc. Of course he is an attorney. Trump does not seek his services for fashion advice. Even matters like dealing with former mistresses requires an attorney due to the many legal issues that are involved. They are just looking for a phony excuse to side-step attorney-client privilege. Having one client does not mean a person is not a lawyer and there is no requirement you have more than one client to be a lawyer. I have a license on the wall and have read all ethical rules and that is BS.
a bris is not a wedding -
... And Clinton’s former Playboy Bunny GF.
1) Is he licensed to practice law?
2) Is Donald Trump his client?
IIF((Condition1 AND Condition2), LAWYER=true, LAWYER=false);
The leaker says one thing, but expects you to ‘hear’ the other.
YES !!!
Read through some of his posts. Looks like a Never-Trumper. — Must be hard for people with TDS.
There is according to the Gov. They get to decided who are what is a lawyer
Why do never Trumpers persist in criticizing everything about this President? I’m sure if u were subjected to the same rectal exam that the President is going thru, u would turn up with a few losers in your line of friends as well.
