NYC taxpayers footing $600-an-hour legal bills for three City Hall staffers amid federal probes

Big Apple taxpayers are footing $600-an-hour legal bills for three City Hall staffers in the historic federal criminal probes encircling Mayor Eric Adams, The Post has learned.

The high-powered law firm Yankwitt LLP has been tapped by the Adams administration to provide legal representation for three employees who’ve been subpoenaed by the feds, according to a city Law Department letter.

The Post confirmed the identity of only one staffer — Molly Schaeffer, the low-profile head of asylum seeker services who was hit with the information-sharing request nearly two weeks ago at her Brooklyn home.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
