Comey taps Patrick Fitzgerald as personal lawyer

“He’s been representing me since I was fired,” Comey told the Chicago Sun-Times on Tuesday evening at a reception in Washington, D.C., for his new memoir.

Comey said Fitzgerald is part of a three-member legal team that includes David Kelley, a former deputy U.S. attorney under Comey in New York, and former federal prosecutor Dan Richman, a Columbia Law School professor.

Fitzgerald, who has known Comey for decades, declined to comment to Talking Points Memo for its report, but a spokeswoman confirmed to the Sun-Times that he “has been part of Mr. Comey’s legal team since May 2017.”
