ABOUT THIS EPISODE
After beginning his second term in office on January 20th, 2025, President Trump has launched an unprecedented assault on large private law firms in the US. Fondly referred to as "Big Law" by lawyers and law students alike, these law firms have adopted different strategies to respond to executive orders and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission actions. To break down how Big Law is grappling with the administration's assault, Associate Professor of Law at the University of Florida, Levin College of Law, Christopher Hampson, and Assistant Professor of Law at Michigan State University, College of Law, Elise Maizel, join us to discuss their article, Ethics and Independence in Trump's War on Big Law.
