BofA is doing its best to boost the fortunes of America's big-firm lawyers, as evidenced by a particularly litigious week in which the bank faced an amended securities class action complaint, stepped up the defense of its soon-to-be-former CEO, settled an employment dispute, and got some good news from a Manhattan federal district court judge not named Rakoff.

The A-List (51-200)

Lawyers like to lament the passing of their fabled past, when partners knew each other on sight, firms contented themselves to operating in one ZIP code and junior associates were not a menacing anonymous horde threatening to take out their frustrations via the blogosphere. As it happens, in the big-firm world those days aren't gone, they've just moved to the Am Law Second Hundred ranks, where firms are prosperous and growing steadily but retain the possibility of old-fashioned cohesion.

A Thursday ruling from the California Supreme Court gives former law firm clients less time to hit a firm with a malpractice suit. The clock for filing a malpractice suit starts ticking when a client ends its relationship with a law firm -- even if the client still retains one of the firm's former attorneys, the court ruled. The ruling gets former partners of the now-defunct Arter & Hadden off the hook for any damages in a $3.5 million malpractice suit filed in 2003 by Texas-based Beal Bank.

Trial Practice

Robert S. Kelner, senior partner at Kelner and Kelner, and Gail S. Kelner, an attorney with the firm, write that it is lamentable that it is apparently more cost-effective to lose a few anonymous workers than to ensure a safe workplace.
