T.I. has enlisted serious heavy hitting lawyers to lead his defense team while facing federal firearm charges. In addition to his lawyers Ed Garland and longtime partner Don Samuel, T.I. has hired Steve Sadow and Dwight Thomas.
"[Sadow] and I have known each other a very long time, and both my partner [Samuel] and I have worked together with him on many cases," Garland said Wednesday night.

All four lawyers are no stranger to big-headline cases.

One of Garland's most famous clients, NFL star Ray Lewis, walked away from a murder charge in 2000 by pleading to a misdemeanor.

Garland and Samuel also defended millionaire investor James Sullivan, who was sentenced to life in prison without parole, in the 1987 murder-for-hire of his wife, Lita.

For his part, Sadow was the lead attorney in the high-profile racketeering case involving the Gold Club, an Atlanta strip club that catered to famous athletes. [SOURCE]
