Paul Manafort is in the process of replacing his legal team as he faces an intensifying investigation into money-laundering allegations, The Post has learned.

Donald Trump’s ex-campaign manager, was looking to replace his top lawyer after the FBI raided his Virginia home in a pre-dawn raid last month, The Post first reported on Thursday.

He will hire Miller & Chevalier, a small D.C. tax-focused law firm, to represent him, according to a report.

Manafort had primarily been represented by Reginald Brown of WilmerHale — the same DC law firm that employed Robert Mueller until he was appointed special counsel in May to investigate allegations that Trump colluded with Russia in the election.

The hiring of the tax-focused law firm is motivated by the financial nature of the documents taken from Manafort’s home in July, according to one person familiar with Manafort’s plans.

The ex-Trump aide also wanted to avoid a potential conflict of interest at WilmerHale, one source said.

A person close to Manafort insisted he has no concern about Mueller’s connection with WilmerHale. Brown will no longer represent Manafort after the legal shuffle.

Manafort, 68, is under investigation by the DOJ, as well as New York AG Eric T. Schneiderman and Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance Jr, all of which are probing payments he received for his work for Viktor Yanukovych, Ukraine’s former pro-Putin president, and whether he laundered those funds through his many New York real estate holdings.

Manafort has been close with Trump for years, according to texts hacked from his daughter’s cell phone and released on the internet last year.

On Thursday, Trump distanced himself from Manafort during a press conference that touched on the FBI’s pre-dawn raid of his ex-adviser’s home. While Trump said he hadn’t spoken to Manafort in “a very long time,” ex-campaign adviser was in periodic contact with Trump through at least April, according to Politico.

“I’ve always found Paul Manafort to be a very decent man,” Trump said. “He’s like a lot of other people, probably makes consultant fees from all over the place, who knows, I don’t know, but I thought it was pretty tough stuff to wake him up, perhaps his family was there. I think that’s pretty tough stuff.”

The Post first reported the strange story of how Manafort came to acquire a derelict Brooklyn brownstone — and his shady financial connections to son-in-law Jeffrey Yohai, with whom he has a rocky relationship.

Among his other holdings is a condo in Trump Tower that he bought in 2006 for $3.67 million, according to public filings.

The search for a tax-focused law firm stems from the financial nature of the documents collected in last month’s raid, one source said.

Jason Maloni, a spokesman for Manafort, declined to comment.

Brown didn’t return calls and an email seeking comment.
