A Message From the Editor

A longtime Fox Rothschild partner and corporate department chair is claiming that the firm discriminated against him when it forced him into an income partner role. Read our first story today for more details about the suit, which highlights succession issues that can arise with mandatory retirement policies. Also, ExxonMobil is arguing that a more than $700 million verdict a jury rendered against it earlier this year is "manifestly irrational."

Thanks for reading!
