Not Everyone Wants to Work For Quislings; Law Firm Ed.

Four top partners at Paul Weiss announced late Friday that they were leaving the law firm, a major blow to the firm in the wake of its decision to cut a deal with President Trump to head off an executive order that would have restricted its business.

The partners — Karen Dunn, Bill Isaacson, Jeannie Rhee and Jessica Phillips — will form their own law firm.

The corrollary for "who would want to hire a law firm which can't stand up for itself" is "who would want to work for such a firm"?

I wish them well. And may Paul, Weiss continue to bleed talent and, ultimately, implode.

    The firms who stood up to him have won every round so far.
