PERKINS COIE REACHED a multimillion-dollar settlement last month with former client Tokyo Kikai Seisakusho, a manufacturer of large newspaper printing presses. The Japanese company sued two of the firm’s Washington-based partners for malpractice in February 2006 stemming from work they did in a legal dispute involving anti-dumping laws.
TKS agreed to drop its suit against the Seattle-based firm August 22.

It did not name the law firm in the release, citing a nondisclosure agreement.
