(CNN) Stormy Daniels' attorney, Michael Avenatti, admitted he wasn't initially fully sold on taking on the adult film star's case. "I had a healthy dose, David, of skepticism relating to Stormy Daniels when I first heard about this," Avenatti told David Axelrod on "The Axe Files," a podcast from the University of Chicago Institute of Politics and CNN. "I knew that she was an adult film star and I haven't represented any adult film stars. "I mean, I've had a real legal career with real cases of significant magnitude and I've got a reputation that I've built over the years. Avenatti said those reservations disappeared when he met Daniels in person.
