The US president's former lawyer and top adviser claims the business failed to pay him almost $2m (£1.5m) in legal costs.

The lawsuit said that as part of his work for the billionaire tycoon, the company agreed to pay him for his company-related work.

In the spring of 2017, Cohen hired law firm McDermott Will & Emery after he was made a"person of interest" in special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into alleged collusion between Mr Trump's presidential campaign and Russia.The firm withdrew from Cohen's case soon after The Trump Organization allegedly stopped paying his bills. The lawsuit says the withdrawal"prejudiced" Cohen's ability to respond to the investigation.

The lawsuit says Cohen's sentence arose from conduct undertaken under The Trump Organization"and its principals, directors, and officers".

When you sit back and think how can it really become even more unbelievable!! I mean you couldn’t make this shit up! Now here’s what a pathetic human being looks like!!

Good move.....

Cohen isn't that a Jewish family name, well if it's about money they are worst than a Pittbull 🇸🇪go for it

Big move- if Trump denies and it goes to court- the details become public record- you asked him to do this/do that/threatened him/her- gotta love this dude, the everreadybunny- thegiftthatkeepsongiving

For goodness sake

What’s Kevin Webster done now ?

Unfortunately, secretly taping your clients violates your payment agreement Mr. Cohen. Your agreement covered ethical and lawful representation.

The best comics didn't see this one coming.
