"All but one were found in a storage space in the garage of the president's residence" in Wilmington, the statement continued.
"A one-page document was discovered among material stored in an adjacent room" while "no document was found in the Rehoboth Beach residence," his beach house.
The lawyers reiterate that they cooperate fully with the Justice Department and have informed it immediately.
"The top secret papers found in Wilmington weren't in the street, they were safe, in the garage where my Corvettes are." Joe Biden said this

US House neo-speaker Kevin McCarthy goes on the attack
, according to which Congress must investigate Biden on the classified documents in his possession.
McCarthy condemned the "political use" of justice by the administration, the "double standards", with the news and immediate photos of the top secret papers seized from Donald Trump, while the discovery of Biden's documents is been revealed after more than 2 months, for now without any images.
The speaker also criticized Biden for calling his predecessor irresponsible for the misuse of classified documents when he appears to have done the same.
Also criticized the administration and the media for suppressing
the story on the laptop of Hunter Biden, the son of the president.
In the meantime, Donald Trump is attacking special prosecutor Jack Smith who is investigating him
in the vein of classified documents and the attack on the Capitol, and is asking for his torpedoing.
"He's a Trump-hating thug whose wife is an avowed serial Trump hater and whose friends and family are even worse," he writes on his social media Truth, also quoting Lisa Monaco.
"You torpedo a man who could very well turn out to be a criminal, Jack Smith. His conflicts, his impropriety and his deranged mental state make him totally inadequate for the job of taking out Trump," he continues, calling for prosecution Biden and his family .
