Law Firm Skadden Chooses To Surrender To Trump

Law Firm Skadden Chooses To Surrender To Trump
SHARE

President Donald Trump made an announcement on Friday regarding the law firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, stating that they had reached a deal with the administration to prevent the potential issuance of an executive order targeting the firm.

During a White House appearance, Trump disclosed that the agreement required Skadden to offer $100 million in pro bono services to the Trump administration. However, a spokesperson for Skadden did not respond immediately to requests for confirmation or comments on the deal.

Skadden’s decision to proactively engage with the Trump administration follows a similar move by the New York-based firm Paul Weiss, which also opted to comply with the administration’s demands without the need for an executive order.

In contrast, three other law firms targeted by Trump, including Perkins Coie, WilmerHale, and Jenner & Block, have filed lawsuits challenging the orders directed at them. A federal district court judge has even issued a temporary restraining order against Trump’s actions towards Perkins Coie, citing concerns about the implications of such measures.

The reasons behind Skadden’s choice to negotiate with Trump remain unclear. Billionaire White House advisor Elon Musk had previously criticized the firm on social media for its involvement in a case against conservative commentator Dinesh D’Souza, but there was no public indication of an impending executive order against the firm.

The voluntary submission of Skadden to Trump’s demands occurs amidst a broader trend of the administration targeting the legal profession. Trump has issued executive orders against five law firms, revoked security clearances from other lawyers, and attempted to empower the Department of Justice to disqualify individual lawyers or firms from cases challenging the administration.

This new deal with Skadden sets a higher bar for other firms facing similar threats from Trump. While Paul Weiss agreed to provide $40 million in pro bono services, Skadden has committed to $100 million, representing a 150% increase in the tribute price.

The firms that have opted to resist Trump’s directives have vocally criticized the legality of the executive orders in their legal filings. For instance, the order targeting Jenner & Block has been described as “an unconstitutional abuse of power against lawyers, their clients, and the legal system” in the lawsuit filed by the firm. Similarly, Perkins Coie has asserted that the order is designed to intimidate those who advocate viewpoints contrary to the administration’s agenda, whether on behalf of paying or pro bono clients.

Overall, the legal battles between the Trump administration and these law firms highlight the ongoing tensions between the government and the legal profession, with significant implications for the future of legal advocacy in the political landscape.
