MIAMI — (MIAMI) -- Former President Donald Trump is narrowing down his list of potential attorneys as he and his team work to expand his legal team following his arraignment Tuesday on federal charges, sources tell ABC News.
Multiple sources have described the process as"productive," with"several options" for lawyers that could join his legal defense.
Trump has denied all wrongdoing, saying that his handling of all documents was in line with the Presidential Records Act. Officials with the National Archives and Records Administration, however, have said that the act requires a president to separate personal and presidential documents"before leaving office."
With no timetable set for Trump's next court date, sources said there's no time crunch to officially finalize the team. Among the first motions Trump's legal team is expected to file is a motion to dismiss the indictment entirely, according to sources.
