On March 11, 2025, we filed a legal action in response to a recent Executive Order that unlawfully targets Perkins Coie. The order violates core constitutional rights, including the rights to free speech and due process. At the heart of the order is an unlawful attack on the freedom of all Americans to select counsel of their choice without fear of retribution or punishment from the government. We were compelled to take this action to protect our firm and our clients.
Since our founding in 1912, Perkins Coie has built enduring relationships with our clients based on trust, dedication, and a shared pursuit of excellence. We have advocated for clients with a wide range of perspectives, beliefs, and needs. We take pride in a workplace culture grounded in a commitment to treating everyone, regardless of background, with fairness, civility, and respect. We are a firm of more than 2,400 people proudly working together across 21 offices in service to our clients. We represent clients from start-ups to market leaders across a wide range of industries and practice areas. We are known for representing some of the world’s most innovative companies on issues at the forefront of technological change.
We are grateful for the outpouring of support and offers of assistance following the issuance of the Executive Order. I have never been prouder to stand with my firm and others in the legal community in support of our people, our clients, and our profession.
