McDaniel, 51, met with Los Angeles-based entertainment and media attorney Bryan Freedman on Tuesday, according to Politico.

The pair discussed McDaniel’s legal options beyond getting the $600,000 she was due to be paid over two years by NBCUniversal, which she expects to receive, according to the outlet.

Defamation and hostile work environment lawsuits against the network are reportedly on the table.

McDaniel, however, has yet to formally hire Freedman to be her legal representative, according to the report.

Freedman has represented a number of high-profile, ousted, cable news anchors, including Megyn Kelly, Chris Cuomo, Don Lemon, Tucker Carlson and Sage Steele.

He’s also litigated for A-listers, including Vin Diesel, Gabrielle Union, Quentin Tarantino, Robert Downey Jr. and Mariah Carey, according to his law firm’s website.

NBCUniversal chairman Cesar Conde terminated McDaniel’s paid contributorship gig Tuesday following public backlash to her hiring from several stars at the network, including MSNBC hosts Rachel Maddow, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, and former “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd.

After news broke of her hiring, McDaniel appeared on “Meet the Press” Sunday, where she was interviewed by moderator Kristen Welker and acknowledged that President Biden won the 2020 election “fair and square.”
