New York Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie and Judiciary Committee Chair Charles D. Lavine have announced the hiring of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP to lead impeachment investigation into allegations against Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
“Since Thursday, Chairman Lavine led a vigorous search for a top-flight firm to assist with the investigation. I have the utmost faith that Assemblymember Lavine and our Judiciary Committee will conduct a full and fair investigation,” Speaker Heastie said.
The law firm's team includes Angela Burgess, Greg Andres and Martine Beamon.
According to published reports, Greg Andres was part of Robert Mueller's special counsel team investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election, and led the successful prosecution of former President Donald Trump's campaign chairman Paul Manafort.
