The FBI raided the offices in Chicago of one of President Donald Trump's former attorneys, Edward Burke, who is a member of the city council.
Burke's small firm represented Trump in Chicago over tax matters, obtaining $14 million in relief from property tax assessments over 12 years on the president's flagship Trump Tower in that city.
The FBI confirmed the raid on the morning of Nov. 29 to CBS Chicago and to other news outlets, but noted warrants were executed in "Multiple locations today." That included both Burke's law offices and his City Hall office.
Burke represented Trump for 12 years in property-tax matters in Chicago.
Burke stopped representing Trump in May in a sharp break.
In letters filed in county courts and to a state property tax appeal board, Burke said "Irreconcilable differences" with the Trump Organization led him to halt his work on behalf of the firm entirely.
Burke's wife, Anne Burke, was sworn in the same day to another term on the Illinois Supreme Court.
