During the course of 2018, Michael Cohen, former attorney to Donald Trump, revealed that he became aware of Stormy Daniels' plans to participate in interviews with prominent television programs such as '60 Minutes.' This prompted Cohen to take action upon receiving communication from Eric Trump, leading to the initiation of legal proceedings to obtain a temporary restraining order against Daniels in an attempt to prevent the interviews from taking place.

Cohen, along with attorney Larry Rosen, successfully secured a temporary restraining order against Stormy Daniels. However, the process of serving the order proved to be challenging as Cohen did not possess a direct address for Daniels. Consequently, he attempted to serve the order through Daniels' then-attorney, Keith Davidson.

This development necessitated Cohen to adapt his approach, ultimately leading to the realization that attorney Michael Avenatti would be assuming representation for Daniels moving forward.
