A group of Georgetown University law students has created an index of law firms based on their responses to President Donald Trump's sanctions against lawyers accused of frivolous litigation. The index categorizes over 850 law firms into five groups reflecting their compliance or resistance to Trump's demands. Their actions may complicate recruitment for firms that obeyed Trump's orders, as reports indicate students prefer working for firms that oppose him. Trump's threats include revoking clearances and contracts of non-compliant firms, putting heightened pressure on legal practitioners across the political spectrum.
President Trump has attempted to discredit lawyers and judges who challenge him, threatening to revoke law firms' security clearances and access to federal buildings if they don't comply.
Georgetown law students are indexing law firms based on their responses to Trump's demands, highlighting firms that have either caved or stood up against the administration.
