re: How does DJT end up with such a disparate group of attorneys?

Would someone from Perkins Coie provide him a better defense?

If they took the case absolutely. It would likely not pass a partner review vote for new clients and very possibly would be conflicted anyway. That said if attorneys from Perkins Coie performed like Habba in the courtroom I would bet my house they were maliciously sandbagging him or were playing some 4D chess gambit that required them to lose the initial trial.

It is important to note that I pointed out he has some incredible attorneys working for him. Sauer for example is not someone to be dismissed. Rhodes Scholar, Harvard Law Review along with Duke and Notre Dame degrees. Clerked for Scalia and worked for arguably the best litigation boutique in DC. Habba on the other hand has a tier 4 law degree* and nothing of consequence to show on her CV that warrants being hired by one of the most powerful men in the world that is also a billionaire.

How does he have both the likes of Sauer and Habba representing?


* I know some really good litigators with tier 4 degrees but they differ because they could all do a deposition impeachment while in a medically induced comma and if they made a hearsay objection they would innately understand the testimony would have to be for the truth of the matter asserted to be sustained. BTW her objection was not used to break flow so she doesn't have that excuse either.
