Michael Cohen, former President Trump's fixer-turned-adversary, has reportedly settled his lawsuit with the Trump Organization, narrowly avoiding the trial set to begin on Monday.
Cohen alleged the Trump Organization owed him roughly $1.3 million in unpaid legal fees Cohen owes to outside counsel in connection with various investigations and lawsuits.
Cohen filed the lawsuit in 2019, arguing he struck an oral agreement with the Trump Organization to be paid for his attorneys' fees and costs arising from his work on behalf of the company, only for the Trump Organization to refuse reimbursement once Cohen turned against Trump.
Court spokesperson Lucian Chalfen said the parties didn't announce the terms of the settlement.
