And although one ex says that the actor would not have knowingly infected his sexual partners with HIV, Bragman worries that his Today show interview on Tuesday could open him up to lawsuits.
However, despite his diagnosis, Sheen is claiming that there is virtually no HIV in his system.
"He is saying there is virtually no trace of HIV in his blood," a source close to Sheen tells PEOPLE. "Hes taking antiretrovirals and is sticking to the regime.
