Cohen was the president’s lawyer, and now Davis is Cohen’s lawyer, Rolling Stone reported. Davis was also President Bill Clinton’s special counsel, the magazine reported, and represented a Ukrainian oligarch with alleged mob connections, the magazine reported.
Politico described Davis as “as a Democratic strategist and attorney with close connections to Bill and Hillary Clinton.”

For the past four years, Davis — a 72-year-old former special counsel to former President Bill Clinton — has served as a registered foreign agent for Dmitry Firtash, who has been fighting to avoid extradition to Chicago, where he faces charges of international racketeering and money laundering. In registering with the Justice Department as Firtash’s foreign agent, Davis said his firm was being paid $80,000 a month — or about a million dollars a year — by a man described by prosecutors as an “upper-echelon” associate of Russian organized crime. The case against Firtash “seeks to protect this country, its commerce and its citizens from the corrupting influence and withering effects of international organized crime,” prosecutors wrote last year.

President Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen said Wednesday his personal attorney, longtime Clinton confidant Lanny Davis, is representing him for free.
Rep. Jody Hice, Georgia Republican, asked Cohen if liberal activist Tom Steyer is paying Mr. Davis to represent him.
When Cohen said he wasn’t, Mr. Hice then asked who is paying for Mr. Davis.
“At the moment, no one,” Cohen responded.
Mr. Hice incredulously asked Cohen if Mr. Davis was working for nothing.
