Thatâs what  Hizzonerâs  personal law firm  Kramer Levin Naftalis and Frankel LLP  is charging to defend the mayor during a yearlong probe by the Manhattan US Attorneyâs Office into whether his campaign donors got special treatment from City Hall.
The probe concluded in March 2017 with no charges filed  even as prosecutors noted that  de Blasio  had âmade or directed inquiries to relevant city agencies on behalf of those donors.â
âI want to affirm I did try to go a different route  â de Blasio  said on WNYC radio in July. âAnd I thought a lot about it and I came to the conclusion it just didnât make sense  that the consistent and appropriate thing is any employee who has not done anything wrong and obviously not as you said â clear  not indicted  etc. â deserves legal representation from the city of New York.â
 De Blasio  still plans to use a legal defense fund to pay for the expenses stemming from that probe  city officials said.
