Hunter Biden’s legal hiring decision has reportedly put him at odds with White House staff, as his top lawyer is causing headaches among some of those involved in the first son’s legal cases.
The president’s son hired top Washington, D.C., lawyer Abbe Lowell in December to ratchet up the intensity of his legal approach, Axios reported Friday.
The hire comes as Biden is facing legal cases related to child support, Republican probes and a potential gun charge. Lowell’s addition to the first son’s team was a surprise to President Joe Biden’s lawyer Bob Bauer, who recommended another option — Josh Levy — to handle the GOP’s investigations, according to the outlet.
