Prior representation:

Transocean Deepwater Inc., a drilling company, in criminal and civil litigation arising from the 2010 BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.[24] After a months-long trial, the court found that under a drilling contract, BP bore indemnity obligations for the millions of barrels of oil discharged during the spill.[25]

Vanessa Bryant in an invasion of privacy lawsuit regarding the inappropriate sharing of photos from the scene of the helicopter crash that killed her husband and daughter, Kobe and Gianna Bryant, and seven others.[26] The jury awarded Vanessa Bryant and others $31 million. The firm also represented the Kobe Bryant Estate in the wrongful death suit against Island Express, the helicopter company that was transporting the passengers who all perished in the crash.[26]

The Getty Trust after allegations of wrongdoing in the acquisition of its antiquities collection[27]

Berkshire Hathaway in its acquisition of Alleghany Corp. for $11.6 billion[32]

Warren Buffett in his $31 billion gift to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation[33]

Families of five children and four adults killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, who reached a $73 million settlement with gun manufacturer Remington.

Kenneth Walker III, boyfriend of the late Breonna Taylor, who reached a $2 million settlement with the City of Louisville to resolve lawsuits Walker filed stemming from the unlawful police raid that led to Taylor's death in 2020.

Multiple Obama cabinet members worked there/continue to work with the firm.
