“I think we would consider it, I would converse with my client. It would depend on the terms of a settlement,” Michael Avenatti replied. “But at this point, I don’t see how the case gets resolved short of the truth coming out.”

Avenatti, who has conducted multiple television interviews in recent weeks, made the comments after filing a motion to depose both Trump and the president's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen.

Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, has been fighting a nondisclosure agreement she and Cohen signed surrounding an affair she said had with Trump 10 years ago. Daniels, 39, argues the deal is not legally binding because Trump never signed the document.

Trump has yet to comment on Daniels, while the White House has officially denied the claims.

Avenatti on Wednesday again brushed off claims his representation of Daniels was politically motivated.

“My client wants the American people to know the truth,” Avenatti said when asked about his work at a political consulting firm run by Rahm Emanuel, now the Democratic mayor of Chicago and a former White House chief of staff in the Obama administration.
