Trump Probe Prosecutor Made His Name Defending Wall Street Banks

Carey Dunne spent decades at the top of the New York legal profession, making millions defending Wall Street banks and global corporations. But the 63-year-old had to leave his elite law firm to find the biggest case of his career -- investigating Donald Trump and his company.

Before becoming Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance’s general counsel shortly after Trump’s 2016 election, Dunne was a senior partner at Davis Polk & Wardwell, one of New York’s most prestigious -- and profitable -- law firms.
