I think the poster above you's point was that the people who do work for him usually don't get paid at all regardless of who is paying. Usually Trump would probably just stiff the lawyers so the PAC could use the money for other things like advertising and rallies.

However I think the answer here is the lawyers are demanding the money up front so stiffing them isn't an option.
