This WSJ article reports that big-name trial lawyers are voting with their feet by leaving major law firms and going to boutique outfits dedicated to litigation. A group of star lawyers from Paul Weiss—including prominent Democrat Karen Dunn—left to start their own shop in May, weeks after the firm became the first to make a deal with President Trump to neutralize a punitive executive order. A few weeks earlier, veteran trial lawyer Abbe Lowell left Winston & Strawn and started a boutique law firm. He said the model allows him to take on some of the most high-profile cases challenging the Trump administration. Lowell’s move came amid a flurry of departures by other top litigators from large firms.
