      Tacopina declined to say why he was leaving. If he’s a competent lawyer then he’d require cash up front. My money is on Trump being stupid with his lawyers again, or he refused to add more funds to his account.

      They really should be demanding payment up front. I have always had to pay up front when talk with a lawyer how is he not paying them?

        You only pay a certain amount up front. Once that amount is used up, they bill hourly sending invoices once or twice a month. When he doesn’t pay that, the attorney quits, and trump has to hire a new (sometimes team of) lawyer who needs time to get up to speed on the case and it can be a delaying tactic as much as lowlife-ness.
