Former girlfriend of sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, answered questions "about 100 different people" during one-and-a-half days of questioning in the federal courthouse in Tallahassee, Florida.
Her lawyer, David Oscar Markus confirmed that she answered "every single question".
Maxwell was granted limited immunity to take part in the questioning, Sky News has confirmed.
Mr Markus said Maxwell "answered those questions honestly, truthfully, to the best of her ability" when she met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.
He added: "She never invoked a privilege. She never refused to answer a question, so we're very proud of her."
Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for luring young girls to massage rooms for Epstein to abuse.
Donald Trump has been called the "ultimate dealmaker" by Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyer after comments he made about his power to offer her a pardon.
Maxwell's lawyer David Markus told reporters: "We haven’t spoken to the president, or anybody, about a pardon, just yet.
"The president said this morning he has the power to do so. We hope he exercises that power in the right and just way.”
Trump's comments about pardons come as more and more questions mount surrounding his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.
The President has never been found of any wrongdoing related to the disgraced socialite, however, he has denied writing birthday greetings to him or ever visiting his island.
Arriving in Scotland for a golfing trip, Trump told reporters: “A lot of people asking me about pardons ... this is no time to be talking about pardons.”
