Mr. Karp, who will remain at Paul Weiss, and a spokesman for Mr. Black did not respond to requests for comment.

“Leading Paul, Weiss for the past 18 years has been the honor of my professional life,” Mr. Karp said in the firm’s statement on Wednesday.

Taking over as chairman is Scott Barshay, the head of the firm’s lucrative corporate practice. In a statement on Wednesday announcing his appointment, Paul Weiss said Mr. Barshay had “over 30 years advising boards of directors and management teams on some of the most complex and highest-profile legal matters.

So nothing. Whoever is allowing him to stay is just as complicit as anyone involved in the Epstein files. Again, this is more than sexual abuse. This is the absolute corruption of our institutions.

NP. Doesn’t anyone here work in big law and have intel? I highly doubt he’s staying on for long. This is likely a step down face saving cover

Why would this scumbag get the chance to save face? Millions of regular folks in this country have been fired without any favors so who is protecting these jerks?

It will be nice to see these firms and lawyers get banned from government work.

I agree. I hope it’s just the firm buying a little bit of time to gather more information before firing him. I also hope they sue him for all he’s worth (or will this be more rich, white men protecting their own….????).

Did the rest of the Paul Weiss partnership know? Paul Weiss’ business reputation was irreparably harmed by the decision to cave to Trump and it would be interesting to know if the partnership were aware of this tangled web.

Yes. This is what I really wonder about. He flushed Paul Weiss’ reputation down to the toilet when he got it to cave a year ago. And now whoever held on is going to flee.

A bunch of partners left after that happened.

***Yes---this is the latest. Now we know why this formerly prestigious, powerful firm, kowtowed to Trump.
Trumps's mafia criminal empire had the "receipts" on the guy.

Lawyers have greater responsibilities than simply making money. The decision is a disgrace to the firm, and this DC lawyer has lost respect for the firm.

Exactly.! Lawyers are supposed to defend the US Constitution. Law school is a grind. If these criminals don't want to defend and uphold our laws...they can join the mafia instead.

At the rate DOJ is losing AUSAs, Paul Weiss is going to have to start using all those pro bono hours they promised Trump to lock up kids.

Yes, this law firm was compromised and bent over for Trump swiftly. However, does that also mean that the other law firms that capitulated without a whimper are also compromised like the Weiss law firm?
