Michael Cohen, the personal attorney of president Donald Trump has sold his apartment in the Trump World Tower for $3.3 million.

In 2001, back when the skyscraper located near the United Nations building was just completing the final touches on its construction, Cohen and his wife Laura first bought the unit. This was before Chen was employed by Trump Organization. Public records indicate that he paid slightly over $1 million for the apartment. At 845 United Nations Plaza a three-bedroom was listed to rent for $12,750 per month, as recently as 2015.

Juhee and Vijay Jhalani are the new owners of the apartment on the 15th floor. Records indicate that the couple already owned another unit in the building on the 10th floor.

According to The Real Deal, “Cohen did not immediately respond to a request seeking comment. Cohen’s listed home address on sales documents for Trump World Tower is the apartment he shares with his wife at Trump Park Avenue, a hotel conversion where the Trump Organization launched sales in 2003. Then a taxi entrepreneur and occasional real estate investor, Cohen joined the Trump Organization as executive vice president in 2006, serving as Trump’s personal attorney and sometimes spokesperson. In January, he announced he would continue to serve now-President Trump in that role. He has since become a key figure in special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election. In August, the New York Times reported on an email sent by Cohen to a Russian official during the presidential campaign, requesting help in building a Trump Tower in Moscow.”

Cohen was scheduled to have a closed-door session with the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence in September, but the meeting was canceled right before. Despite the fact that the meeting had not occurred, Cohen released a statement saying, “I emphatically state that I had nothing to do with any Russian involvement in our electoral process.”
