Trump to Lawyers: My Name is Money!

Posted Aug 11th 2008 3:00PM by TMZ Staff

If it were anyone else, it might read like a 13-page joke.

But Donald Trump is serious as a heart attack. D.T. is suing his former lawyers for $10 mil, just because they're using Trump's name in their bios and blurbs. His Combovership claims attorney David Scharf and his law firm have "commercially exploited" Trump by touting their famous client's name to drum up business.

Scharf tells TMZ Trump's just trying to get out from under his $600K bill for legal fees -- a case in which Trump won a multi-million-dollar judgment.

13. Mr Donald Trump is a winner. He lives a good life, runs a successful business and speaks up when he feels it is warranted. On the other hand TMZ posters. You are losers. You most likely struggle in life, you work for someone else (if you work at all, and you only speak up when you can hide behind a computer. Trump may not be your ideal but then who out there looks to you as theirs. Now go to work little people.
