Quick Shucks – 9/13/09

  • A Family Fights and a Lawyer Falls – Hogan & Hartson's Robert Cave got caught up in a mess of a divorce case. Read all about it at law.com, but the most interesting part is that the ex-husbend, Frank Benevento, was a "mad scientist" who was awarded $15 million for his role in structuring the KKR/RJR Nabisco deal made famous by Barbarians at the Gate.
  • Verdict Spares Microsoft $358M in Patent Damages – Microsoft keeps the patent lawyers busy. Did Weil handle this one, too?
  • Five Child Stars Turned Lawyers – Good list, but how could they forget Chunk? http://lawshucks.com/2009/07/from-goondocks-to-tinseltown/
  • Law.com – Lifetime Achievers 2009 – American Lawyer's lifetime achievement awards.
  • LawComix: Transactional Lawyers Gone Wild – BS. Litigators are like glee club. They go perform in front of a bunch of people who don't understand half of what's going on. Then their parents clap for them. Deal lawyers' work is all over the headlines.
