Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, a UK-based firm, is the only top 20 US law firm to support Perkins Coie's legal challenge against a Trump executive order banning it from federal government work. The brief, signed by over 500 firms, mostly smaller ones, argues the order is unconstitutional and creates a climate of fear. Many large firms settled with the administration, prompting criticism from some junior associates and alumni. Perkins Coie has already won a restraining order against the ban.
