Expressing \u201cprofound disappointment and deep outrage,\u201d the letter points to indoctrination of every Skadden employee to the legacy Joe Flom, a founding partner who championed diversity, hired the firm\u2019s first female associate, and created the Skadden Fellowship Foundation, to provide attorneys to advocate for marginalized communities on issues such as immigration and racial justice.\r\n\r\n\u201cAt a time when rule of law, freedom of speech, and the adversarial system collectively face existential threat, Skadden\u2019s agreement with President Trump emboldened him to further undermine our democracy,\u201d the letter says. \u201cIn light of Skadden\u2019s position, it is outrageous and self-interested that rather than fulfilling the legal profession\u2019s oath and standing in solidarity with fellow law firms that were fighting to uphold the Constitution, Skadden caved to bullying tactics instead.\u201d\r\n\r\nThe letter was signed by 83 firm alumni, including five former Skadden partners (three of whom provided their names) and multiple generations of law firm associates and counsels whose tenures date back as far as the 1970s. Thirty one of the signatories, out of concern for professional repercussions,\u00a0joined the letter anonymously, listed only by their terminal title at the firm and the years they worked there. The letter\u2019s signatories include three alumni\u2014Thomas Sipp, Brenna Frey, and Rachel Cohen--who recently quit in protest of the firm\u2019s failure to stand up for the rule of law. The letter calls for Skadden to \u201cclearly affirm the firm\u2019s commitment to reject the administration\u2019s attacks on the judiciary, the Constitution, and rule of law before it\u2019s too late.\u201d\r\n\r\n\"I am viscerally disappointed by the failures and cowardice of Skadden leadership, including many individuals who previously had my deep respect,\u201d said Rachel Cohen, ex asociada de Skadden que renunci\u00f3 hace dos semanas en protesta porque la firma no defiende el estado de derecho.<\/strong>. \u201cBut I am heartened and unsurprised by the number of Skadden staff, associates and alumni who are holding leadership accountable and fighting to save not just the firm's reputation, but the future of the American legal system itself.\u201d\r\n\r\nLast week, alumni of the firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP envi\u00f3 una carta<\/a> Al presidente Brad Karp en protesta por un acuerdo similar que la firma alcanz\u00f3 con el presidente Trump. Esta carta sigue recogiendo firmas de exalumnos de la firma (a continuaci\u00f3n, se puede encontrar una versi\u00f3n actualizada con 174 firmas). Elizabeth J. Grossman, exalumna de Paul Weiss y directora ejecutiva de Common Cause Illinois <\/strong>helped organize that letter.\r\n\r\n\u201cThis letter from Skadden alumni is part of a growing movement of attorneys outraged that some of the nation\u2019s most prestigious and wealthiest law firms are buckling under pressure from the White House and turning their backs on the rule of law in this country,\u201d dijo Grossman.<\/strong> \u201cThe Trump White House is attacking judges, ignoring the Constitution, and bullying firms for representing anyone the administration disagrees with. The firms will tell you this was necessary for their bottom line. Don\u2019t believe them. This is cowardice, plain and simple.\u201d\r\n\r\nTo view the updated Skadden letter with 30 additional signatures (as of April 22, 2025), haga clic aqu\u00ed<\/a>.\r\n\r\nTo read the updated Paul Weiss alumni letter with additional signatures, haga clic aqu\u00ed<\/a>."}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_add_component","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_add_component":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_work","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_work":{"heading":"Work","manually_curate":false,"work":null}}]},"yoast_head":"\n80+ Skadden Alumni Protest Firm\u2019s Deal with Trump -
