Criticism is mounting against Brad Karp, chairman of the law firm Paul Weiss, over the firm's decision to strike a deal with the Trump administration rather than fight executive actions targeting it.

Why now: Debates are flaring over big law firms capitulating to Trump administration pressure instead of defending the rule of law.
