DiGenova & Toensing has represented Mark Corallo, a former spokesman for Trump's legal team, and Sam Clovis, a former campaign aide.
Corallo was the spokesman for Trump's outside lawyers until last summer, when he resigned during another legal team shake-up.
Since then, Corallo has spoken with Mueller about what he viewed as a false statement dictated by Trump from Air Force One about a June 2016 meeting at Trump Tower in New York City that included several Russians, according to a person familiar with the matter. That meeting was attended by Trump's son, Donald Jr.
Clovis, a former Pentagon official, was a campaign supervisor who wrote "great work" in an email after Trump's foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos discussed efforts to broker a meeting between the campaign and Russian leaders.
Corallo told Reuters on Friday that he had signed a waiver of potential conflicts last week.
Clovis could not be reached for comment, but a person familiar with the matter said appropriate waivers had been signed.
