    Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll has fired a Florida partner after he was charged with possession of child pornography.

    The lawyer, 53-year-old Michael T. Dolce of West Palm Beach, Florida, was charged after police found nearly 2,000 images and videos of child pornography on his electronic devices, according to a March 29 press release.

    Law360 and the Palm Beach Post have coverage.

    According to a Cohen Milstein bio that has been deleted, Dolce led the law firm’s sexual abuse, sex trafficking and domestic abuse team. He exclusively represented children and adult survivors of sex crimes. He worked at the firm’s Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, office.

    FBI agents raided Dolce’s home March 15 and found him “actively downloading child pornography,” according to the press release.

    Cohen Milstein issued a statement to Law360.

    “The firm is stunned and saddened by these appalling allegations,” the statement said. “Michael Dolce was terminated and is no longer affiliated with the firm. We are focused on attending to the needs of our clients and staff and continuing to cooperate fully with the investigation.”
