Scary Law Firms In Time For Halloween — See Generally

Nothing To Fear But Quinn Itself: BTI’s annual survey of the firms clients least want to see across the “v.” is out, and Quinn Emanuel, Kirkland & Ellis, Skadden, and Gibson Dunn are once again the Fearsome Foursome. Weird how two of those firms were too chicken to even defend themselves against an illegal executive order.

Show Me The Precedent: The Eighth Circuit revived Missouri’s Republican gerrymander even though the Supreme Court had already blocked it (and has since blocked it AGAIN), which raised the question of what, exactly, a judge has to do to earn articles of impeachment these days.

Weil Be Back: After a year of watching partners head for Cravath, Simpson Thacher, Sullivan & Cromwell, and seemingly every other firm with a lobby, Weil is welcoming some folks back.

Bed, Bath & Billable: A Legal Cheek survey of trainees and junior lawyers puts Paul, Weiss at the top of the long-day rankings, averaging nearly 13 hours in the office, with Goodwin, Milbank, Fried Frank, and Cleary not far behind.

The Call Is Coming From Inside The Help Desk: Seyfarth Shaw says a hacker posing as IT support talked an employee into sending client documents containing names and Social Security numbers to an unauthorized account.

Bare Arms And The Law: A Bexar County judge told a San Antonio defense lawyer her sleeveless dress was inappropriate, and when the lawyer took the fight online, the judge expanded the indictment to include her tennis shoes and backpack.

American Juris Society^TM

American Juris Society Members have been selected based upon a review and vetting process by our Selection Committee. The platform generates a numerical score of 1 to 12 for each of the 12 enumerated factors which are meant to recognize the applicant’s achievements and peer recognition. All applicants must be licensed to practice law. Members are then subject to a final review for ethical violations within the past ten years before confirmation of Membership. An American Juris Society Nomination does not guarantee membership and attorneys may not pay a fee to be nominated. Attorneys may nominate to the American Juris Society their peers whom they feel warrant consideration. The determination of whether an attorney qualifies for Membership is based upon the aforementioned proprietary analysis discussed above. Membership is not meant to infer any endorsement of the American Juris Society by any of the 50 United States Bar Associations or The District of Columbia Bar Association. Any references to “excellent,” “excellence,” or “distinguished” are meant to refer to the American Juris Society organization only and not to any named member individually.
