It’s a rough gig being a Donald Trump lawyer. At least one,Michael Cohen, has done time. Rudy Giuliani’s law license has been suspended pending revocation hearings.

All of these attorneys have had significant financial sanctions imposed, and several others are in the disciplinary and criminal pipelines.
