High-profile Washington lawyer Lanny J. Davis, a former special counsel to President Bill Clinton, is leaving McDermott Will & Emery after just seven months to form his own firm.
Davis, who is also a well-known political pundit and columnist, said in a statement to the Washington Post that he is forming Lanny J. Davis & Associates, which will specialize in general litigation issues, media crisis and public policy issues.
“I am excited by this opportunity to offer multidiscipline, solution-oriented legal-media-legislative strategies services to U.S. and international clients,” Mr. Davis said in a statement. “I especially look forward to working with not only McDermott attorneys and clients, but also with other attorneys and law firms on high-profile litigation and regulatory matters.”
It was back in October that Davis made news by leaving Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe to join McDermott Will & Emery. According to multiple reports, Davis will continue to work with McDermott but will also forge relationships with other firms in his new role.
