Hunter Biden’s longtime attorney Chris Clark withdrew as counsel amid “recent developments in the matter'—specifically in case he is called to be witness in ongoing matters related to the failed “sweetheart' plea deal the Justice Department offered the president's son.
Under Delaware Rule of Professional Conduct, which Clark points to in his filing,"a lawyer shall not act as an advocate at a trial in which the lawyer is likely to be a necessary witness unless..disqualification of the lawyer would work substantial hardship on the client."
Hunter Biden lawyer Abbe Lowell, who has been representing the president’s son, officially added himself as counsel in the federal case on Monday. Lowell’s comments came just days after the Justice Department appeared to indicate that a trial was imminent.
