The Law Society of Scotland has joined a legal battle in Washington DC, supporting law firms sanctioned by President Trumps executive orders. These orders, targeting firms like WilmerHale, Jenner and Block, Perkins Coie, and Susman Godfrey, were deemed unconstitutional by four rulings. The orders, which block firms from government buildings, federal services, and contracts, accuse lawyers of partisan work. The Law Society, along with UK and European bar groups, is defending lawyer independence globally, emphasizing the importance of protecting democracy principles. The case is now before the Court of Appeals, with global attention on the issue.
