1. Paul Hastings partner packed his resume with lies. Dennis Thomas O’Riordan, a top lawyer at Paul Hasting’s London office, has been exposed for fabricating a huge chunk of his C.V. RollOnFriday reports:
He had claimed that he had been to school at Radley, taken an undergraduate degree and then a doctorate at Balliol Oxford, had been an Eldon Scholar and had also gone to Harvard. He also said that he was a member of the New York Bar and the Irish Bar. All jolly impressive but, unfortunately, all lies.
Jolly impressive too that he managed to fool a whole slew of employers, which also included Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft; Nomura; Sumitomo, and Republic National Bank of New York.
