Correction: A story from The American Lawyer, “How Bancroft became conservatives’ law firm for hot-button cases,” which the Daily Report reprinted on Dec. 28, incorrectly stated that the Bancroft law firm helped Milberg Weiss negotiate a criminal plea with the U.S. Department of Justice in 2008. The firm entered into a non-prosecution agreement with the government in which prosecutors acknowledged that current partners of the firm had no knowledge of any wrongdoing.

It’s a good thing that Paul Clement and Viet Dinh are such close friends. Not many lawyers would do well sharing an office divided down the middle by a sheet of glass. Not only can they watch each other work, but others can look in, too, observing the pair side by side through a hallway wall that is also clear glass. The overall effect is like an exhibit at a museum, or perhaps a zoo.
