But what about Michael Avenatti?
As attorney Robert Barnes has discovered Michael Avenatti has a very disturbing and possibly criminal past.
Avenatti is deeply in debt — Not just with his failed coffee company but with his law firm which failed to even file his law firm’s income tax returns for 2014, 2015, and 2016.
On Thursday May 10th Michael Avenatti released a statement saying all fees and and expenses of his case with porn star Stormy Daniels “have either been funded by our client, Ms. Stephanie Clifford, or by donations from our crowdjustice.com page.
But is this a true statement? Is all of Michael Avenatti’s income from Stormy Daniels coming from a crowdsource page?

In December 2017 court documents Michael Avenatti declared only $412,000 in total assets.
This form by Avenatti was filed with the bankruptcy court.
