New York Attorney General Letitia James’ defense attorney against mortgage fraud allegations is high-profile DC lawyer Abbe Lowell — known for repping other prominent Democrats including
ames in Virginia Thursday, accusing her of lying on forms when she took out a loan for a home in the Old Dominion State, netting her $19,000 in savings.
Lowell, a go-to attorney for leading Dems in legal trouble, issued a statement defending the Empire State’s top lawyer against the accusations, saying she “flatly and forcefully denies these charges.”
The high-profile lawyer — whom James hired in April when the Trump administration launched its probe into her real estate dealings — is also repping embattled Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook as she by the Trump administration, which claimed she also allegedly committed mortgage fraud.
