In the wake of alleged “selfie” with anesthetized comic JOAN RIVERS, her doctors  have lawyered up big time as they prep for possible criminal investigation.  

Rivers’ doctors, Lawrence Cohen and Gwen Korovin, have both hired lawyers as they prepare to be formally questioned by investigators, RadarOnline reported

And officials will question Dr. Korovin about — and ask to examine — an alleged selfie with her personal cell phone she took of herself of herself with the late comic legend, a source claimed.

“Dr. Cohen and Dr. Korovin have both lawyered up, which isn’t surprising given the circumstances surrounding the death of their patient, Joan Rivers,” the source told Radar.

According to the source, Korovin has retained attorney Michael S. Kelton of Fensterman, Fensterman, Eisman, Formato, Ferrara & Wolf, and is the director of the firm’s Medical Malpractice Defense Practice.

 “Both physicians are preparing to be questioned by the New York Medical Examiner’s Office and the New York Health Department about the circumstances surrounding Joan’s death. The New York Police Department is also involved in the investigation, but the medical examiner’s office has the lead on it.”

However, the source also noted, “Neither doctor is accused of any criminal investigation at this stage of the investigation.”

As THE ENQUIRER reported this week in a bombshell exclusive surveillance tapes at the outpatient clinic may have caught Rivers’ final moments on tape.

These will also be viewed by investigators, sources say, as they may be considered key evidence in a possible wrongful death suit as well.
