Vice President Mike Pence has lawyered up in connection with ongoing probes into the Trump campaign’s contacts with Russia, tapping McGuireWoods chairman Richard Cullen, a seasoned litigator who was once a partner at McGuirewoods with FBI Director James Comey.

The move by the vice president, first reported by The Washington Post on Thursday and confirmed in a statement from Pence’s office, comes a month after President Donald Trump hired Marc Kasowitz of Kasowitz Benson Torres as his personal lawyer.
