    BigLaw Revolving Door Report: Kirkland & Ellis By Ella Fanger April 2021 The Revolving Door Project and People's Parity Project jointly publish the BigLaw Revolving Door report series. This series investigates the US's largest law firms, those firms' corporate clients, and how they seek to influence executive branch policies and actions and the larger field of regulatory law. Contents Introduction 3 Kirkland & Ellis’ History of Corporate and Controversial Clients 3 Private Equity 3 Antitrust 4 Oil & Gas 5 Jeffrey Epstein 6 Kirkland & Ellis’ Right-Wing Connections 7 Kirkland & Ellis’ Revolving Door to the Executive Branch 9 Trump Administration 9 Obama Administration 10 Conclusion 10 Acknowledgments The author wishes to thank Molly Coleman, Miranda Litwak, Andrea Beaty, Jeff Hauser, and Zena Wolf. BigLaw Revolving Door Report 2 Kirkland & Ellis Introduction When Politico reported that Susan Davies was one of Biden’s top picks to lead the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (DOJ), progressives were quick to point out her close ties to Big Tech and other corporations regulated by the division. Davies’ prospective appointment put the spotlight on how Kirkland & Ellis has made a business out of influencing the executive branch to the benefit of their corporate clients using several strategies including, significantly, by employing lawyers who regularly revolve in and out of government positions. Primarily a Republican-associated BigLaw firm, Kirkland & Ellis sent several of their lawyers to serve in Trump’s DOJ—including the Attorney General himself, William Barr—where they helped turn the Department into Trump’s personal legal team. But having high-profile Democrats like Davies work for Kirkland provides cover for the firm’s clients that are more hesitant to be associated with a firm so closely tied to the GOP.
