Ellen Holloman, a prominent litigator, has left Cadwalader for boutique firm Kaplan Martin, headed by Roberta Kaplan, an outspoken critic of Trump. This shift reflects a pattern of lawyers departing firms that have compromised their values by aligning with the Trump administration. Cadwalader has seen multiple partner exits lately, raising concerns about its future. The American Lawyer has suggested that more departures could follow among firms that supported Trump's policies, although existing contract limitations may delay these exits.
Ellen Holloman's departure from Cadwalader to Kaplan Martin signals a growing trend of talent moving away from firms aligned with Trump's administration.
Cadwalader expressed gratitude for Ellen's contributions while acknowledging the alignment of practices between her and Roberta Kaplan.
