Steve Bannon, the former top strategist to President Donald Trump, has turned to Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan litigator William Burck in defending criminal charges that he stole from supporters of the president’s U.S.-Mexico border wall, reprising a role the litigator played during the height of Robert Mueller III’s probe in 2018.

Burck, a former federal prosecutor and veteran of the George W. Bush White House, has made a name as one of the most skilled white-collar lawyers in Washington, following an earlier stint in the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s Office, which included his work on the high-profile prosecution of homemaker Martha Stewart on insider-trading charges.
