Paul Clement wins SCOTUS case, leaves law firm

Posted by David Hardy · 24 June 2022 05:39 PM

He and Erin Murphy are founding their own firm. They had been with Kirkland & Ellis, a very big national firm, but K&E voted that it will "no longer represent clients with respect to matters involving the interpretation of the Second Amendment." Some big clients, we may guess, sniffed at their 2A clientele.

I guess the firm has to keep up its standards.

Does that mean they won’t do any work for the anti-gunners as well?

As within every "professional firm" there are quality and qualified individuals, and the rest who rise to the management committee (or their sycophants).

My own experience is such with K&E; several resigned, one went to prison, many moved on to other firms, ...

Don't accept that because attorneys use words which you likely do not, and are "aggressive", that they are "smarter" or have capacity to "care" about anything but maximizing "the billables on your 'codes'" (if they keep rotating young associates through your "matter(s)", you (your company / employer) are being "USED". ...

And, remember K&E is a product of Chicago. Which since the later half of the 1800s has been a "den of iniquity". (It is built on "sinking sand".)
