Manafort investigation and testimony involving former counsel
Melissa Laurenza, an Akin partner who had previously represented Paul Manafort, was compelled to testify in his trial during the special-counsel investigation. The testimony concerned legal work and filings related to foreign-agent registration and lobbying disclosures. The available material describes the firm's involvement in the proceeding but does not establish misconduct by Akin.
