Start your own 2nd Amendment Rights law firm. You now have the creds to start one.

Who would want to work for a LAW firm that does not believe in the Constitution or the Supreme Court?

Report that firm to the bar and have them disbarred IMMEDIATELY.

They should also be investigated for other legal abuses of the system.

Imagine if a law firm told a lawyer to dump all their transgender clients?

Do you think that law firm would be allowed to stay in business?

We HAVE to fight back against this treachery NOW.

The law firm is even more nefarious than it would seem.

Imagine, the firm sanctioning taking on a 2A Case for plaintiff(s) whose rights are violated and then the lawyers assigned to the case had the effrontery to actually win it.

The firm’s demands on the lawyers are an admission (IMO) that it NEVER intended to faithfully represent the client. IOW, they EXPECTED to lose and get paid a hefty sum while doing it. Unconscionable...

I’d say the two lawyers ought to form their own 2A firm and the first clients would be in a massive lawsuit against the former firm. Class Action....

Kirkland and Ellis is a huge conglomerate law firm with offices worldwide.

I’m sure that Kirkland and Ellis are taking heat from very large Liberal clients for winning this case, so K-E made the decision to either lose huge corporate accounts or lose the second amendment troublemakers.

Easy choice to make for soulless lawyers.

Isn’t Paul Clement a name I recognize from high-profile cases, or SC considerations ?

"....As Mr. Clement and his litigation partner, Erin Murphy, explain nearby, they’re leaving the firm rather than dump their clients. That’s the honorable and ethical decision..."

Blessings to them.

Recognizing that posting is hard ... the post title info has the Washington Post listed as the source, but this is a WSJ article.

Mr. Clement should have no problem starting his own firm.

“Kirkland & Ellis announced today its decision to no longer represent clients with respect to matters involving the interpretation of the Second Amendment,” the firm said in a press release, without explanation. It added that Mr. Clement and Ms. Murphy “will be leaving the firm in order to continue their full range of existing representations.”

Shed no tears. These two pro-constitution lawyers will be busy and making plenty of money in the future. All of these events succeed in revealing scoundrels, backstabbers and traitors to the USA. We now know the black hats from the white hats.

Your link accurately takes one to the story you reference, which is in the Wall Street Journal. But the name of the link as it appears in your post is the Washington Post. The Post would never run a story like this. Too accurate and even handed.
