In 2015, Cohen purchased an Upper East Side apartment building for $58 million.[6]
Politics
Cohen volunteered for the 1988 presidential campaign of Michael Dukakis.[1] He was also an intern for Congressman Joe Moakley[2] and voted for Barack Obama in 2008, although he later stated that he became disappointed with Obama.[1]

Donald Trump
Cohen joined the Trump Organization in late 2006.
In 2008, Cohen was named chief operating officer of mixed martial arts promotion company Affliction Entertainment, in which Trump held a significant financial stake.[25]
While Cohen was an executive at the Trump Organization, he was known as Trump's "pit bull". In late 2011, when Trump was publicly speculating about running for the
In a 2011 interview with ABC News, Cohen stated, "If somebody does something Mr. Trump doesn't like, I do everything in my power to resolve it to Mr. Trump's benefit. If you do something wrong, I'm going to come at you, grab you by the neck and I'm not going to let you go until I'm finished."[26]
In 2013, Cohen sent an email to the satirical news website The Onion, demanding that an article it had published mocking Trump ("When You're Feeling Low, Just Remember I'll Be Dead In About 15 or 20 Years")[27] be removed with an apology, claiming it was defamatory.[28]
In 2015, in response to an inquiry by reporter Tim Mak of The Daily Beast concerning rape allegations (brought up in the 1980s but later recanted) by Ivana Trump about her then-husband Donald Trump, Cohen said, "I'm warning you, tread very fucking lightly, because what I'm going to do to you is going to be fucking disgusting."[24]
In April 2016, along with Darrell C. Scott, Cohen was a co-founder of the National Diversity Coalition for Trump.[29][30] Peter J. Gleason, a lawyer who filed for protection of documents pertaining to two women with sexual-abuse allegations against Eric T. Schneiderman, stated—without offering details or corroborating evidence—that Cohen told him that if Trump had been elected governor of New York in 2013, the latter would have helped bring the accusations to public attention.[31]
In mid-2016, Cohen defended Trump against allegations of antisemitism.[3] Later that year, part of a video interview of Cohen by CNN's Brianna Keilar went viral, in which Cohen said "Says who?" several times in response to Keilar's statement that Trump was behind in all of the polls.[32][33]
Regarding Russia
In January 2016, according to The Washington Post, Cohen sent an email to Russian politician Dmitry Peskov which was the "most direct outreach documented by a top Trump aide to a similarly senior member of Putin's government".[34][35]
The January 2017
In late January 2017, Cohen met with Ukrainian opposition politician
In May 2017, amidst expanding inquiries into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election, two congressional panels asked Cohen to provide information about any communications he had with people connected to the Russian government.[6][49][50][51][52] He was a subject of the Mueller investigation in 2018.[53][54][55] Because of these investigations, Cohen and Trump signed a joint defense agreement allowing their attorneys to share information during the Mueller investigations and joint defense agreements were arranged between Trump and both Flynn and Paul Manafort. Cohen retained an attorney with Davidoff Hutcher & Citron who later also represented Rudy Giuliani.[56][57][58]
Payment to Stormy Daniels
In late 2016, adult-film actress Stormy Daniels (legal name Stephanie Clifford) was speaking to some reporters and said that she had had a sexual affair with Trump in 2006. In October, Cohen and Daniels' attorney Keith M. Davidson negotiated a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) under which she was to be paid $130,000 hush money. Cohen created a Delaware LLC called Essential Consultants and used it to pay the $130,000.[59] The arrangement was reported by The Wall Street Journal in January 2018.[60][61]
Cohen told
On March 5, The Wall Street Journal cited anonymous sources recounting Cohen as saying he missed two deadlines to pay Daniels because Cohen "couldn't reach Mr. Trump in the hectic final days of the presidential campaign", and that after Trump's election, Cohen had complained that he had not been reimbursed for the payment. Cohen described this report as "fake news".[65]
On March 9, NBC News reported that Cohen had used his Trump Organization email to negotiate with Daniels regarding her NDA, and that Cohen had used the same Trump Organization email to arrange for a transfer for funds that would eventually lead to Daniels' payment.[66] In response, Cohen acknowledged that he had transferred funds from his home equity line of credit to the LLC and from the LLC to Daniels' attorney.[67]
In a March 25, 2018, interview with 60 Minutes, Daniels said that she and Trump had sex once, and that later she had been threatened in front of her infant daughter and felt pressured to later sign an NDA.[68][69]
On March 26, David Schwarz, a lawyer for Cohen, told ABC's Good Morning America that Daniels was lying in the 60 Minutes interview. Cohen's lawyer sent a cease-and-desist letter claiming that Daniels' statements constituted "libel per se and intentional infliction of emotional distress" to Cohen.[70]
Cohen initiated a private arbitration case against Daniels in February 2018, based on an NDA signed by Daniels in October 2016 in exchange for $130,000. Cohen obtained an order from an arbitrator barring Daniels from publicly discussing her alleged relationship with Trump.[71][72] Daniels subsequently brought a lawsuit in federal court against Trump and Cohen, arguing that the NDA was legally invalid because Trump never signed it.[73] Cohen responded by seeking to compel arbitration, which would avoid public proceedings.[72] In April 2018, Cohen filed a declaration in the court saying that he would invoke his Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate himself in the Daniels lawsuit.[74][75]
On May 18, lawyers for Cohen filed an objection to Daniels' lawyer Michael Avenatti being allowed to represent her in a case involving Cohen, claiming it (the objection) was based on the violations of ethical rules and local court rules, among other issues.[76] After Cohen's August 2018 conviction, Trump stated that the payment to Daniels came from him personally and not from the campaign during a Fox & Friends interview.[77]
Recording of discussion regarding Karen McDougal
In late 2016, Karen McDougal, a former Playboy model, claimed that she and Trump had an affair from 2006 until 2007, a claim that Trump has denied.[78] The National Enquirer paid McDougal $150,000 for her story but never published it, a practice known as catch and kill.[79] On September 30, 2016, Cohen created Resolution Consultants LLC, a Delaware shell company, to purchase the rights to McDougal's story from the National Enquirer, though the rights to the story were ultimately never purchased.[80][81]
Cohen had been known to record conversations and phone calls with other people.[82] According to his lawyer Lanny Davis, "Michael Cohen had the habit of using his phone to record conversations instead of taking notes."[83] Altogether the prosecutors have been given more than one hundred audio recordings from the material seized from Cohen in the April 2018 raid; reportedly only one of them featured a substantive conversation with Trump.[83]
On July 20, it was revealed that Cohen secretly recorded a conversation between Trump and him.[84][85] The discussion involved a potential hush payment to the publisher of the National Enquirer. The recording had been classified as a privileged attorney–client communication by the Special Master reviewing the Cohen material, but Trump's attorneys waived that claim,[78] meaning that prosecutors can have it and use it. The conversation in that tape occurred in September 2016, two months before the election and weeks after the Enquirer paid McDougal the $150,000. In the conversation, Trump and Cohen discuss whether to buy the rights to her story from the Enquirer, and Trump appears to approve the idea. Trump's lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, initially claimed that the tape shows Trump saying "make sure it's done correctly, and make sure it's done by check". Giuliani also noted that no payment was ultimately made, and asserted that Trump's team waived privilege and allowed the recording to be revealed because it shows no violation of law.[78] The recording appears to contradict Hope Hicks, then Trump's spokeswoman, who said when the story of the Enquirer payment came out a few days before the election that the Trump campaign had "no knowledge of any of this".[86]
On July 25, Cohen's attorney
Despite the taped conversation, on August 23, in a Fox News interview Trump stated that he was not aware of the hush-money payments until "later on": "Later on I knew. Later on. What he did—and they weren't taken out of the campaign finance, that's the big thing." He added: "In fact, my first question when I heard about it was, did they come out of the campaign, because that could be a little dicey. And they didn't come out of the campaign and that's big. But they weren't ... that's not even a campaign violation."[89] According to U.S. election rules, any payments intended to influence an election vote must be reported, and the payments have questions about campaign-finance ethics.[77][85]
Later matters
On April 3, 2017, Cohen was appointed as one of three national deputy finance chairmen of the Republican National Committee (RNC), along with Elliott Broidy and Louis DeJoy.[90][91][92] In April 2017, Cohen also formed an alliance with Squire Patton Boggs for legal and lobbying counsel on behalf of Trump.[93]
In May 2018, BBC News falsely reported that Cohen had received a secret payment of between $400,000 and $600,000 from intermediaries for Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to arrange a meeting between Poroshenko and Trump, though Cohen was not registered as a foreign agent.[94][95] Cohen and the Ukrainian president's office denied the allegations.[94] The BBC ended up having to state the allegation was untrue, apologizing to Poroshenko, deleting the article from its website, paying legal costs, and paying damages to Poroshenko.[96][97]
In May 2018, Rudy Giuliani announced that Cohen was no longer Trump's lawyer.[98]
In June 2018, Cohen resigned as deputy finance chairman of the RNC. His resignation letter cited the ongoing investigations and also criticized the Trump administration's policy of separating undocumented families at the border.[99]
In July 2018, Cohen asserted that then-candidate Trump knew in advance about the
Lawsuit against Trump and countersuit
In March 2019, Cohen sued the Trump Organization for allegedly refusing to reimburse his legal fees regarding proceedings implicating Trump.[101] Jury selection began on July 17, 2023, ahead of a trial which was set to start on July 24.[102] On July 21, both parties agreed to an undisclosed settlement.[103]
In April 2023, Trump sued Cohen for $500 million, alleging breaching the trust of their attorney–client privilege while making statements against Trump.[104] Cohen sought documents from The Trump Organization to use in his defense. In August, Trump claimed that these documents "should be covered by a confidentiality order" and disclosing them could expose Trump "to the risk of self-incrimination" in other cases.[105] On October 5, 2023, Trump dropped the suit after he was scheduled to give sworn testimony the following week.[106][107]
Falwell scandal involvement
In 2015 president of Liberty University Jerry Falwell Jr. reached out to Cohen and asked him for a personal favor. Falwell had told Cohen that a third party had obtained compromising nude photos of Falwell's wife Becki Falwell.[108][109] Cohen met with the third party and after the meeting the person destroyed the photos.[110][111] Shortly after Cohen did this favor for Falwell, Falwell endorsed Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. In August, 2020 Cohen told CNN that there was no link between the favor and the endorsement saying “There is absolutely no connection between the photos and my personal request to the Falwells to assist the Trump campaign".[108]
Payment to Shera Bechard
In an April 2018 court proceeding, Cohen said he had given legal advice to only three clients in 2017: Trump, Sean Hannity, and Republican fundraiser Elliott Broidy.[112] The Wall Street Journal reported that Shera Bechard, a former Playboy Playmate, had an affair in 2017 with Broidy, who was married. She became pregnant by him, had an abortion, and was to be paid $1.6 million hush money.[113][114] Broidy was a deputy finance chairman of the Republican National Committee along with Cohen and DeJoy.[92]
In late 2017, Cohen arranged the $1.6 million payment by Broidy to Bechard as part of an NDA requiring Bechard to keep silent about the matter.[115] Cohen was Broidy's attorney and Keith M. Davidson represented Bechard.[115] Davidson had previously been the attorney for Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.[115] The Bechard NDA used the same pseudonyms—David Dennison for the man and Peggy Peterson for the woman—as in the Daniels agreement.[116] The payments were to be made in installments.
On July 6, 2018, Bechard filed a lawsuit against Broidy, Davidson, and Daniels' attorney Michael Avenatti, claiming the three had breached the agreement in relation to the cessation of the settlement payments.[117][118][119][120]
Essential Consultants LLC
Essential Consultants LLC is a
Questions were raised about many of the payments, such as four totaling $200,000 that AT&T paid to the LLC between October 2017 and January 2018,[127][128] while at the same time the proposed merger between the company and Time Warner was pending before the Justice Department. AT&T claimed that the money was paid to the LLC and other firms that were used to provide insights into understanding the new administration, and that the LLC did no legal or lobbying work for AT&T.[122][129]
On May 11, 2018, the CEO of AT&T stated that in early 2017 it was approached by Cohen to provide "his opinion on the new president and his administration". Cohen was paid $600,000 ($50,000 per month) over the year, which its CEO described as "a big mistake". Novartis was also approached by Cohen and was offered similar services.[130]
Novartis, a Switzerland–based pharmaceutical giant paid the LLC nearly $1.2 million in separate payments.[131] Novartis released a statement May 9, 2018, that it hired the LLC to help the company understand the "health care policy" of the new administration, but it actually did not receive benefit for its investment. The statement continued that Novartis made a decision to not engage Essential Consultants further, but it could not terminate the contract for "cause", raising concerns on why the company did not pursue reimbursement.[132]
Korea Aerospace Industries paid $150,000,[125] ostensibly for advice on "cost accounting standards".[132]
Franklin L. Haney agreed to pay Cohen $10 million if he successfully lobbied for the

This charge was brought directly by Robert Mueller's investigation, rather than the United States Attorney for the SDNY, who brought the previous charges against Cohen.[193] In a sentencing memorandum filed the following day, Cohen's attorneys stated he kept Trump "apprised" of the "substantive conversation" Cohen had in January 2016 with a Russian official, and discussed with Trump traveling to Russia to advance the project during the summer of 2016. The filing also stated Cohen "remained in close and regular contact with White House-based staff and legal counsel" as he prepared to provide false testimony to Congress.[194]
According to a BuzzFeed report on January 17, 2019, Trump personally directed Cohen to lie to Congress about the Trump Tower Moscow project.[195][196] However, a spokesman for the Special Counsel investigation later said the report was "not accurate", but did not specify "which parts of the BuzzFeed story they were calling untrue".[197]
On February 26, 2019, Cohen was officially disbarred by the New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division.[198]
Defamation lawsuit
In 2018 Stormy Daniels sued Cohen for defamation, citing a statement he made to the media in which he said "Just because something isn't true doesn't mean that it can't cause you harm or damage." Daniels's lawsuit alleged that Cohen's comments were meant to convey that Daniels was a liar about her relationship with Trump, and that the lie caused Trump harm.[199][200] The case was dismissed.[201]
Prison and house arrest
Cohen reported to
On July 2, 2020, Cohen was photographed dining at a Manhattan restaurant, which according to his lawyer Lanny Davis was not a violation of his prison furlough since he had not yet transitioned to house arrest. A week later, he was taken back into custody after federal officials asserted he had refused to sign an agreement stipulating that he would have no engagement of any kind with the media—including publishing his "tell-all" book—for the remainder of his sentence, which encompassed the November 2020 elections.[205] The previous week he had announced on Twitter that he anticipated releasing a book on his experiences working for Trump in late September 2020. He also tweeted on June 26 that a recent New York Times article entitled "Inside Barr's Effort to Undermine Prosecutors in N.Y." had revealed "only a part of the full story," using the hashtag #WillSpeakSoon.[205][206] After being sent to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, he was returned to FCI Otisville and held in solitary confinement 23 hours each day, which prevented him from working on his manuscript on prison library computers. Cohen denied he refused to sign the agreement, asserting his attorney had simply asked questions about it, at which point US marshals escorted him back to prison.[207]
On July 20, 2020, Cohen filed suit against AG
Cohen was released from FCI Otisville on July 24, 2020.[211] Days later, Cohen's attorney informed Hellerstein that Cohen hoped to accept a job offer with an unnamed political action committee to consult and make media appearances on its behalf.[212]

On January 23, Cohen announced through his attorney that he would postpone his testimony to a later date, citing "ongoing threats against his family from President Trump" and Giuliani.
After several scheduling delays, Cohen testified before three congressional committees in late February 2019. First was a February 26 closed-door hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee. He testified for more than seven hours.[228]
Also on February 26, Florida Republican Congressman
On February 27, Cohen gave 10 hours of public, televised testimony before the House Oversight Committee, during which he described Trump as a "racist," a "con man", and a "cheat", and expressed remorse and shame for the things he had done for Trump. He said the president had reimbursed him for illegal hush money payments, suggested that he should lie to Congress and the public about the Trump Tower Moscow negotiations, and filed false financial statements with banks and insurance companies. Republicans hammered on his previous false testimony, asking why he should be believed now.[232][233]
On February 28, Cohen testified behind closed doors to the House Intelligence Committee for more than seven hours. Cohen returned to that committee for more questioning on March 6.[234]
In April 2019, Cohen said he had found a hard drive with 14 million documents, many of which were personal, but some of which might be relevant to the charges.[235][236][237] Cohen later said: “It took 26 people to go through my 14 million documents, literally round the clock, because the judge demanded that we have it done within 45 days."[238]
Disloyal: A Memoir
Cohen's memoir on Trump, Disloyal: A Memoir, was released in September 2020. In the foreword, Cohen characterizes Trump as "a cheat, a mobster, a liar, a fraud, a bully, a racist, a predator, a con man".[239][240]
Personal life
Cohen married Ukrainian-born Laura Shusterman in 1994.[6][241][242] They have a daughter, Samantha, and a son, Jake.[243] Laura Shusterman's father, Fima Shusterman, left Soviet Ukraine for New York in 1975.[242] He was the person who introduced Cohen to Trump, according to a Trump biographer.[223][244]
Cohen has been friends since childhood with
Cohen served as chairman of the board of directors of Columbia Grammar & Preparatory School through late 2016.
Before joining the Trump Organization, Cohen had purchased several homes in Trump's buildings.[2] A 2017 New York Times article reported that Cohen is known for having "a penchant for luxury"; he was married at The Pierre luxury hotel, drove a Porsche while attending college, and once owned a Bentley.[6]
In January 2019 documents that were released after the prosecution of former police officer Paul Dean revealed that Cohen, Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and others had obtained handgun carry permits after making donations to the Police Athletic League or the New York City Police Foundation despite not having the proper credentials on file. Cohen lawyer Lanny Davis did not comment on the allegations against Cohen.[246]
In addition to his Mea Culpa podcast, in February 2023, Cohen teamed up with Ben Meiselas of the MeidasTouch team on a podcast/YouTube show called Political Beatdown.
In popular culture
As the Mueller investigation concerning Trump was in the daily news headlines, it became fodder for parody on Saturday Night Live, with Cohen being portrayed by Ben Stiller and Trump by Alec Baldwin.[247]

Cohen was fuming over a satirical article published under Trump's name with the headline, 'When You're Feeling Low, Just Remember I'll Be Dead In About 15 Or 20 Years.' On Trump's behalf, Cohen demanded that The Onion immediately remove the article and apologize. 'This commentary goes way beyond defamation and, if not immediately removed, I will take all actions necessary to ensure your actions do not go without consequence,' Cohen wrote, according to a copy of the email provided to Politico. 'Guide yourself accordingly.'

[There was] an email Trump lawyer Michael Cohen sent to Kremlin press secretary Dmitry Peskov. They called it 'the most direct interaction yet of a top Trump aide and a senior member of Putin's government.' The report shows the whole episode was a joke. In order to further the Trump Tower project-that-never-was, Cohen literally cold-emailed the Kremlin. More than that, he entered the email incorrectly, so the letter initially didn't even arrive. When he finally fixed the mistake, Peskov didn't answer back.
