Four top partners at Paul Weiss, including Karen Dunn, Bill Isaacson, Jessica Phillips, and Jeannie Rhee, have resigned to form their own firm.
The departures come after Paul Weiss made a deal with the Trump administration to reverse an executive order against the firm, sparking criticism within the legal profession.
The departing partners did not give a specific reason for leaving Paul Weiss, but their new firm's name is yet to be revealed.
The lawyers have previously represented high-profile clients like Google, Amazon, and Apple, and their departure reflects the ongoing turmoil at Big Law firms over interactions with the Trump administration.
