We don’t know who all of a given firm’s clients are, never mind the scope and nature of any representation, but we can glean enough from the public record to know there are plenty of firms that need to revisit their relationships with Russia-based clients.

Harvard, Stanford, and Yale Law Schools have been tracking what major U.S. and U.K. law firms have stated publicly about their intentions for Russia-based clients, presumably to put some pressure on those that would continue to indirectly fund Vladimir Putin’s Ukraine war effort.

So far, a lot of law firms have refrained from making commitments. Others have hedged, perhaps saying they don’t or won’t represent state-backed entities.

A few firms have said they will cut ties completely.
