    Comment from @MichaelAvenatti on this: "Nonsense. Completely different law firm - no ties to Daniels case. Irrelevant. Over blown. Sensational reporting at its finest. No judgment against me or the firm handling the Daniels case (which was formed in 2006) was issued."https://twitter.com/finneganLAT/status/998985104285319168 …

    Breaking: Avenatti law firm hit today with $10 million judgment in US Bankruptcy Court. Justice Dept lawyer says Avenatti also defaulted on back taxes he’d agreed to pay. Story ahead.

        Just talked to Avenatti, who acknowledges that the judgment is against his former firm — Eagan Avenatti — but says it's irrelevant to his work as a lawyer in the Stormy Daniels case. He also said that he personally did not default on any back taxes.

        His "other businesses and personal life" are irrelevant to his representation, he told me, and would not talk about the personal guarantee that he made regarding the settlement payment that the EA firm missed leading to today's judgment, reiterating that it is irrelevant.

        That's a non-denial denial. Completely different law firm? That seems to be saying Avenatti had a law firm which did suffer a judgement against it, just not the one he's using to represent Daniels.

        Research Pacer. Avenatti almost always shows up as Eagan Avenatti.

        His new law firm has the same address and email as this law firm that the judgement is against. *He changed the name

        Who the hell cares-good grief are all you reporters just jealous because he has had more important info in the last 3 months than all of you put together-you all are acting like trump-attacking the messenger instead of focusing on what he brings to the table

        That's a bit of wiggle room if you ask me. "against me or the firm handling the Daniels' case" what about any other firms he was involved with, or an important part of?
