Departures Shrink Kirkland's L.A. Office

Chicago-based juggernaut Kirkland & Ellis has continued to increase head count, revenue and profits firmwide. But in Los Angeles, key rainmakers are making less rain, and departures in the last six months have brought the 115-lawyer office to about 90 attorneys. With some of its leading lawyers reaching a stage where they're choosing to slow down, around 20 attorneys -- half of them partners -- have left the L.A. office over the last half year, some for top competitors.

From Atticus Finch to Denny Crane

Perhaps I was just an impressionable 13-year-old, but I have spoken to other lawyers who feel the same as I do: Gregory Peck's portrayal of country lawyer Atticus Finch in the 1962 film version of "To Kill a Mockingbird" is the reason why we became lawyers in the first place. Fast-forward to 2004 and the beginning of the new fall television season, which boasts two new legal dramas, ABC's "Boston Legal" (lawyers as effete scumbags) and UPN's "Kevin Hill" (lawyers as redeemable human beings).

Deletions from the 2011 License Revoked List and 2011 Ineligible List

The New Jersey Lawyers' Fund for Client Protection declares that past due payment for the following attorneys were received before publication of the 2011 License Revoked List. These payments were received after the publishers' deadline, so publication of the names could not be prevented. The Order declaring those on the List revoked was effective upon publication, September 26, 2011. The effect, therefore, is that these attorneys did not have their licenses to practice law in New Jersey revoked. Their names should be stricken from the Court Order dated September 20, 2011 and published on September 26, 2011.
