How Law Firm Acquisition by Private Equity Firms Could Alter the Litigation Landscape – Ep 67
Update: 2025-10-08
Description
In this episode of Litigation Nation, co-hosts Jack Sanker and Danessa Watkins dive into two legal topics currently impacting the U.S. litigation landscape.
- A private equity firm recently expressed interest in ownership stakes of several law firms, raising questions about the ethics of non-attorney involvement in the legal process. A prohibited practice to-date, non-attorney equity in law firms gives third parties the ability to take financial stakes in the outcome of lawsuits. Jack analyzes the ethical and administrative implications this introduces for both litigation and company operations.
- A Texas district court bill proposing the required display of the ten commandments in public school classrooms has resumed a long-standing debate and potentially prompted new law regarding the separation of church and state. Danessa examines the bill and the resulting national conversation about First Amendment rights and religious freedom in public schools.
Join us as we discuss the complexities of critical topics and we encourage our listeners to stay informed about how these issues may affect their rights and responsibilities in litigation. Don't forget to subscribe to Litigation Nation for more updates on legal news and analysis!
