Introduction: Trump Targets U.S. Law Firms In an unprecedented move, the Trump administration has launched a series of executive orders aimed at U.S. law firms, specifically targeting those representing Democratic-aligned clients and promoting diversity initiatives.

President Trump has taken aim at law firms that he believes have wronged him. Here's how they've responded.

Mr. Mueller, who worked at WilmerHale before retiring in 2021, had investigated the Trump campaign’s ties to Russian officials during the president’s first term.

President Trump has signed a string of executive orders in recent weeks targeting some of the nation's most prominent law firms.

WilmerHale and Jenner & Block sued President Donald Trump's administration on Friday over his executive orders targeting the law firms, escalating a clash between the Republican president and a large swath of the legal profession.

Law firms Jenner & Block and WilmerHale sued the Trump administration over executive orders targeting them, while another firm, Skadden, made a deal.

But the firms fear the orders are being written so broadly as to potentially weaken national security by calling into question the status of security clearances of lawyers who, in addition to their legal practice, serve as military reservists and require their clearances to report to duty.

Another major international law firm has reached a deal with President Donald Trump to dedicate at least $100 million in free legal services to causes such as supporting veterans and combating antisemitism.

U.S. President Donald Trump issued a proclamation on Thursday targeting law firm WilmerHale, the fifth time the president has taken aim at a major firm with connections to his legal or political adversaries.
