As attorneys for Michael Cohen rush to meet Judge Kimba Wood’s Friday deadline to complete a privilege review of over 3.7 million documents seized in the April 9 raids of Cohen’s New York properties and law office, a source representing this matter has disclosed to ABC News that the law firm handling the case for Cohen is not expected to represent him going forward.

To date, Cohen has been represented by Stephen Ryan and Todd Harrison of the Washington and New York firm, McDermott, Will & Emery LLP.

No replacement counsel has been identified as of this time.

Cohen, now with no legal representation, is likely to cooperate with federal prosecutors in New York, sources said. This development, which is believed to be imminent, will likely hit the White House, family members, staffers and counsels hard.

".....the law firm handling the case for Cohen is not expected to represent him going forward....."

So...how does this work?

Mikey's attorney reviews all the evidence gathered in the raid and says, "You're in deep shit Mr. Cohen, we can't help you...you should cut a deal NOW!"

No. The law firm "complete[s] a privilege review of over 3.7 million documents seized in the April 9 raids," and tells Mikey that he owes the firm more than Mikey can afford to pay. As he cannot pay their bill, they can leave the case.

How much does it cost for high-priced lawyers to review over 3.7 million documents? That is a whole lot of billable hours.

The Feds do not have to win on the merits. They can just bankrupt their targets.

I like my theory better!

Just a thought........

Every time I've gone to my attorney's office, and proposed that he handle something for me, there is always a discussion of "how much this could cost"

It seems reasonable that Cohen's attorney and he had a similar discussion in April.

Besides, if "the fixer" wasn't over his head in greasy shit, there would have been no search warrant, no raided offices, and no 3.7 million documents worth of evidence.

I also doubt very seriously that Mikey is too broke to pay his attorney.

We'll know soon enough......
