    Law Firms Adopt Sustainability to Stay Sustainable

    Richard J. Sobelsohn writes: It was not long ago that when law firms moved to new digs, they had them designed with the old-school method. Wood paneling on the walls, window-less interior offices for junior associates, and the coveted oversized corner offices for senior partners and rainmakers. During the past few years however, law firms have started going green, and the traditional law office floor plans have morphed.

    Arnold & Porter Attempts to Reinvent Public Policy Group With New Hires

"We have decided that we needed to invest further in public policy in the health care space but also beyond the health care space," Thomas Milch, Arnold & Porter's chairman, told The National Law Journal this week. "The opportunity [to hire the Squire Patton Boggs group] presented itself unexpectedly a little bit, but not the subject matter. We had actually given it some thought," Milch said.
