The New York Times reported that the phone call could prove to be problematic, as attorneys often tell their clients not to be in contact with each other during the course of criminal investigations. Federal prosecutors confirmed on Friday that Cohen has been the subject of a criminal probe for months.

The two men reportedly spoke the same day that their legal representatives argued in court that federal investigators should not be able to examine the documents seized by the FBI, which Cohen and Trump claim are protected by attorney-client privilege.

The privilege would block federal prosecutors from obtaining the records under most situations; however, it's revoked for discussions concerning future wrongdoing like fraud, according to the American Bar Association.

Trump had already decried the raid on his longtime personal attorney's office, tweeting that "attorney-client privilege is dead."

Cohen's attorneys want to review the seized materials before prosecutors review them.
