Cohen Lawyers Recommend `Masters' to Review Seized Material

(Bloomberg) -- Lawyers for Michael Cohen recommended four candidates to serve as special masters to review material seized in raids of Cohen’s office and home earlier this month.

In a letter to Judge Kimba Wood dated April 17, Cohen’s lawyers suggested that Bart Schwartz of Guidepost Solutions, Joan McPhee of Ropes & Gray LLP, Tai Park of Park Jensen Bennett LLP or George S. Canellos, Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy could review what documents are covered by attorney-client privilege.

Cohen has been the personal attorney for President Donald Trump.
