President Donald Trump’s longtime fixer Michael Cohen hired Bill Clinton’s former lawyer, Lanny Davis, to help deal with a federal probe of Cohen’s businesses and finances.
“Like most of America, I have been following the matter regarding Michael Cohen with great interest," Davis said in a statement Thursday, confirming his representation of Cohen. "As an attorney, I have talked to Michael many times in the last two weeks. Then I read his words published on July 2, and I recognized his sincerity.

Davis joins Guy Petrillo, a former federal prosecutor in New York, who is also representing Cohen.
