Damian Williams has left Paul Weiss after five months to join Jenner & Block, a firm actively suing the Trump administration. As a former U.S. Attorney in Manhattan, Williams' move is particularly significant as it follows Paul Weiss brokering a deal with Trump's administration, providing $40 million in pro bono hours for Trump's political causes. Jenner & Block, having resisted similar agreements, has successfully challenged Trump's orders in court. Williams expressed excitement about joining Jenner & Block, emphasizing its commitment to fierce advocacy and strategic legal counsel.
"Jenner & Block fearlessly advocates for its clients and provides outstanding strategic counsel through their most difficult challenges," Williams said in a press release.
"I'm excited to join a team with an extraordinary depth of legal talent that doesn't shy away from hard fights - and delivers results that matter," his statement continued.
