Our runners up for Litigator of the Week include a pro bono team from Latham & Watkins starring associates Corey Calabrese and Russ Mangas, along with partners Claudia Salomon and Andy Clubok. They prevailed in a six-week voting rights bench trial in the Southern District of New York before U.S. District Judge Cathy Seibel that began on Feb. 10 and concluded via Zoom on March 24.
