Aggressive Poacher Paul, Weiss Gets Poached

"Gibson Dunn & Crutcher is picking up Paul Weiss partner Brian Scrivani in New York as it expands its private equity and mergers and acquisitions practices .. Scrivani advised Apollo Global Management on transactions including a $5.2 billion take-private of Arconic Corp. …" Bloomberg News, June 24, 2024

This represents another high-profile partner associated with the Apollo account leaving Paul, Weiss. Many recall Taurie Zeitzer's exit to White & Case.

Both domestically and internationally, Paul, Weiss seems to be diversifying its PE and M&A practices beyond a dependence on Apollo, a major and lucrative account. That has been among the factors driving its agressive poaching. 

It's a dog fight out there among large law firms for developing and keeping new business. Meanwhile their high rates open the door for regional firms to pitch for the business. Two jobs on the Paul. Weiss website deal with business development.
