USA: According to a recent article in The Washington Post, former US President Donald Trump is having trouble finding a competent lawyer to represent himself.
Several lawyers contacted by the newspaper, under condition of anonymity, gave their opinion on Trump's difficulty in locating qualified legal representation.
A Republican attorney commented on how lawyers are dismissing cases brought by the Trump camp, adding that "everybody is saying no."
Another lawyer, who also spoke anonymously, discussed the challenges of representing Trump. According to reports, Trump used to tweet about Mueller's investigation while he was president, despite his legal team's counsel.
Others who worked for Trump complained to The Washington Post that he was a difficult customer and expressed concerns about getting paid for his efforts.
“At the time, he used to tell businesses that representing him was an advantage because they could use it for advertising. Today, things are different, according to Michael Cohen, a former Trump attorney who is now a savage of the former president. are opponents.
He is also a very challenging client because he constantly pushes boundaries, rarely heeds sound legal advice, and insists that you take action that is unreasonable from an ethical or legal standpoint, Cohen continued.
According to Trump spokesman Taylor Budovich, the Trump legal team "consists of people with decades of prosecuting experience and has prosecuted some of the most complex cases in US history such as Jim Trusty and Ivan Corcoran".
According to Budovich, any suggestion that President Trump is not being represented by some of the best lawyers in the country is simply motivated by jealousy.
Trump is currently being represented by Trustees and Corcoran, as well as former One America news anchor Christina Bob and New Jersey parking garage attorney Alina Habba.
This year, Trump will have to deal with a number of important legal issues, including a New York investigation into potential financial fraud and potential breaches of banking, insurance and tax laws on the part of the Trump Organization.
During his statement on the matter, Trump invoked the Fifth Amendment more than 440 times.
He could also face criminal charges after the Justice Department looked into whether Trump improperly handled secret documents.
Last Monday, the FBI removed 11 confidential documents from Trump's Mar-a-Lago, issuing search warrants there, some of which were marked "top secret." The Justice Department is reportedly investigating whether Trump violated three federal laws, including the Espionage Act.
The insider requested comment from a representative in the press office after Trump's presidency, but he did not immediately provide it.
