Avenatti became well known nationally in 2018 as he represented Daniels in lawsuits against then-President Donald Trump.

The president's personal lawyer at the time, Michael Cohen, paid $130,000 to Daniels, who filed the suit under her legal name Stephanie Clifford. After Trump's election, Daniels sued to void the agreement.
Meanwhile, Cohen pleaded guilty to campaign finance charges and lying to Congress, among other crimes, and was sentenced to three years in prison in 2018. The Associated Press.
The order in Superior Count in Los Angeles determined Daniels won her lawsuit against Trump over the agreement that was signed 11 days before the 2016 presidential election. As a part of that deal, the losing party would pay the lawyers fees.
Trump's then-lawyer Michael Cohen paid Daniels $130,000 days before the 2016 election. The timing has raised questions over whether the payment could be a violation of campaign finance laws if it was made to protect Trump’s campaign.
"The law says that any payment in connection with the campaign could be considered something that has to be reported," Stephanopoulos said to Giuliani, adding that Avenatti contends the subject of the campaign did come up in discussions around the payment to Daniels.
When Stephanopoulos asked Giuliani, "Why didn’t the president make the payment earlier?" Trump's lawyer said, "I do think it’s suspect that she waits until the very last minute with regard to the campaign, and where you could get the maximum personal damage against the president."
Daniels appeared as herself on "Saturday Night Live" the night before the "This Week" broadcast, which Giuliani suggested showed she is interested only in money and publicity.
