The Arkansas woman who had a child by Hunter Biden out of wedlock recently testified to a federal grand jury in Delaware as part of a criminal tax probe of the son of President Joe Biden, her lawyer confirmed Thursday (3/17).

Clint Lancaster, the attorney for the mother, Lunden Alexis Roberts, also told CNBC that he previously handed over "a significant amount of Hunter's financial records" to federal investigators to comply with a subpoena for those files.”

Lancaster said he and Roberts were interviewed by an assistant U.S. attorney, an FBI agent and an IRS agent — "one that carries a badge and gun" — more than a year ago about Biden in Little Rock, Ark., where Lancaster practices law.

"I expect him to be indicted. Just based on what I saw in his financial records"

Asked if Hunter Biden had ever seen his daughter with Roberts or expressed an interest in doing so, Lancaster said, "No, he has not."

CNBC has reached out for comment from his attorneys about Lancaster's comments. CNBC also has reached out to the U.S. Attorney's Office for Delaware, which is leading the investigation of Biden, and the Department of Justice.

The White House declined to comment on the case, or on Lancaster's statement that neither Hunter Biden nor President Biden or any other family member has ever seen the daughter Hunter had by Roberts.

"Oh, hell, it was a bunch," said Lancaster "They're all in electronic form, I would estimate it was anywhere from 10 gigs of data." Regarding Biden’s records

The lawyer spoke on the heels of a New York Times article which reported that Hunter Biden in recent months told an associate he paid federal taxes of more than $1 million in connection with the tax liability that is at least one part of the investigation by the U.S. Attorney's Office for Delaware.

The Times reported that although the probe initially was focused on a possible criminal violation of tax laws, it since has broadened to include questions of whether Hunter Biden violated laws related to foreign lobbying and money laundering.

The newspaper, citing a person familiar with the issue, reported that investigators questioned the 30-year-old Roberts a year ago in Arkansas about whether a corporate entity used by Biden to pay her when she lived in Washington, D.C., had received payments from Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company on whose board he once sat.

Burisma paid Biden about $50,000 per month from April 2014 until April 2019. He stepped down from the company's board that year as his father's presidential candidacy gained steam.

Roberts' child-support action against Biden noted that she "received money from a company" owned or controlled by him from May to November 2018.

"She never received tax documents for those payments," a court record states.

Lancaster on Thursday said that Roberts traveled to Wilmington, Del., in mid-February to testify to a grand jury in the U.S. courthouse there to comply with a subpoena.

The DailyMail.com previously reported Roberts' appearance for that closed-door testimony.

Her lawyer told CNBC that Roberts did not receive immunity from prosecution before she gave her testimony.

The attorney said he first became aware of the federal criminal investigation into Biden in December 2020.

Lancaster said that within hours of when he contacted Langdon on Dec. 9, 2020, Hunter Biden issued a statement publicly disclosing for the first time that he was under criminal investigation for his "tax affairs."

"I take this matter very seriously but I am confident that a professional and objective review of these matters will demonstrate that I handled my affairs legally and appropriately, including with the benefit of professional tax advisors," Biden said in that statement.

Biden in that statement said he had learned about the probe the day before from his own attorney, who had been notified by the U.S. Attorney's office.

Roberts had sued Biden a year earlier in 2019, claiming that she had his daughter in August 2018. At the time, he was still involved in a romantic relationship with Hallie Biden, the widow of his late brother Beau Biden. The elder brother, a former Delaware attorney general, died from brain cancer in 2015.

Hunter Biden in court papers initially denied ever having sex with her.

Court records showed that Biden missed an appearance in the case. They also indicated that Biden and his lawyers were criticized by the judge for providing limited financial information as Robert pressed claims for support of their daughter in the face of his argument that he did not have any funds to spare.

The judge threatened to hold Biden in contempt in January 2020 for failing to disclose financial information.
