Morgan, Lewis & Bockius announced Wednesday that it will be dropping former President Donald Trump and the Trump Organization as tax clients.
“We have had a limited representation of the Trump Organization and Donald Trump in tax-related matters,” a Morgan Lewis spokeswoman told Law.com, Bloomberg Law and Thomson Reuters Legal. “For those matters not already concluded, we are transitioning as appropriate to other counsel.”
Law360 reports on one ongoing matter—a probe seeking information on whether the Trump Organization inflated the value of property donated for a conservation easement to claim a higher tax deduction.
On Tuesday, Judge Arthur Engoron of New York ordered Morgan Lewis to produce documents that he had reviewed and marked as “not privileged” in the tax probe by New York Attorney General Letitia James.
Engoron had ruled in September that several parties must turn over records in response to James’ subpoenas. He also ruled at that time that Eric Trump, executive vice president of the Trump Organization, couldn’t delay a deposition until after the election.
Morgan Lewis’ announcement that it was dropping Trump and his business as clients comes after other law firms and businesses also distanced themselves from the former president.

Get the hell out of New York.
Their executive, courts and state attorneys are absolutely corrupt political hacks.
Governments in NY and California and Illinois and other liberal states, are run by crime syndicates. Everyone in charge is a corrupt politician, aiming to destroy whatever was good about those states and the country.
BAKE THE DAMN CAKE
Why would anyone trust a law firm that does this? I know if I were a high profile client I’d bail on that firm FAST.
Drum beat grows louder & louder...
Clearly, the communists have a well planned & developed scorched earth agenda...

Good luck getting another Non-DC Establishment Candidate.
They’ll let you have Rubio or Lindsey all day long.
This is what the ChiComs do. Not let people they persecute even have lawyers.
Whatever happened to client attorney privilege?

I’ve been saying this for a year - Giuliani will be indicted.

If you think this is the end of this, YOU ARE WRONG! It’s just the “beginning”... Coming to your front door and into your house, after they kick down the door, sometime VERY soon!
The destruction of President Trump and his entire family is just beginning.
These f#####g persecutors are every bit as evil as third world dictators, they’d try “necklacing” the last, truly elected president and his entire family if they could get away with it.

Just imagine all the money, coke and whores he’s gonna have now! It wouldn’t surprise me at all if biden puts hunter’s dealer AND whores on the payroll at our expense. As the saying goes “leopards don’t change spots”
It’s now “either walk away, or war”. I prefer the idea of walking away. Face it, the entirety of dc is now in the pockets of the communist chinese.
don’t bother voting. You’re wasting you’re time and end up looking like the moron that just lost all his money in a corrupt casino.
what is the point of having a “lawyer” in a sham court?
When do get to see Biden’s tax records?
Not if your a high profile client.
