Meanwhile, sources tell RadarOnline that Cosby has reached out to Michael Jackson’s former attorney Tom Meserau, O.J. Simpson’s ex attorney Robert Shapiro and Lindsay Lohan‘s former lawyer Shawn Chapman-Holley — all of whom have passed on the opportunity despite the $1,200-$1,500-an-hour fees Cosby would pay.
