Lanny J. Davis, former special counsel to President Clinton, said
last week that he is organizing his own law firm, Lanny J. Davis &
Associates, to market his services to other law firms and to do work for
communications and political strategists on either side of the
political aisle.
In a release, Davis said he will remain closely
associated with his former law firm, McDermott Will & Emery,
continuing to service its clients and working with its attorneys. He
said the new arrangement would allow him to pursue media crisis and
public policy work with a variety of firms, including prominent
Republican firms. He noted that he once served as a member of President
George W. Bush's privacy and civil liberties oversight board.
"In
today's Washington, there is usually no clear 'red' solution or 'blue'
solution -- almost always, the best solution is a 'purple' or bipartisan
solution," Davis said in a statement. "Similarly, there are often no
purely legal solutions to legal problems either."
Davis is well
known around town, and said he will continue to contribute to the "Legal
Crisis Strategies" blog that he started in 2009 with his former
colleague at McDermott, attorney Eileen M. O'Connor.
