Statements

As our filing today makes clear, the government’s arguments do nothing to overcome the fact that the Executive Order is patently unlawful—for all the reasons the court has already recognized. We remain committed to upholding the rule of law and ensuring this unconstitutional Executive Order is never enforced.

We stand with Susman Godfrey in their defense of the constitutional freedoms all Americans hold dear.

We are grateful for the support of over 500 law firms, as well as numerous other amici, in our challenge to the unconstitutional Executive Order and the threat it poses to the rule of law.

Today, Perkins Coie filed a motion asking the Court to permanently block enforcement of the unlawful Executive Order targeting our firm. Since our initial filing, we have made clear our resolve in protecting our firm, safeguarding the interests of our clients, and upholding the rule of law.

The Executive Order threatens core constitutional principles and freedoms that all Americans hold dear, and the Court has already found that we are likely to succeed in our challenge. In the meantime, we will continue to practice law as we have for over a century: fearlessly advocating on behalf of our clients.

We stand with Jenner & Block and WilmerHale in their defense of the constitutional freedoms all Americans hold dear.

Today’s decision granting our motion for a temporary restraining order is an important first step in ensuring this unconstitutional Executive Order is never enforced. We will follow the court’s direction regarding next steps and will continue to challenge the Executive Order, which threatens our firm, our clients, and core constitutional protections important to all Americans.‍

Today, we filed a legal action to prevent enforcement of an unlawful Executive Order targeting our firm. The order violates core constitutional protections, including the rights to free speech and due process, and undermines all clients’ right to select counsel of their choice. We were compelled to take this step to protect our firm and safeguard the interests of our clients.
