Trump lawyer sued him for ‘repeated claims’ mail voting ripe with fraud – By Joseph Choi (The Hill) / Feb 9 2021
One of the attorneys on former President Trump‘s impeachment defense team sued him late last year for making “repeated claims” that mail voting was plagued with fraud despite having “no evidence in support of these claims.”
The Washington Post reports that Michael T. van der Veen, a Philadelphia lawyer with a background in personal injury law, is now a part of Trump’s defense team after having sued him just a few months ago.
It reported that van der Veen’s signature has been on briefs filed by Trump’s team, which includes Bruce Castor, a lead attorney for Trump’s defense who was hired in December by van der Veen’s firm.
The firm is van der Veen, O’Neill, Hartshorn and Levin.
