WINSTON & STRAWN – Sanctioned, Sinking, and Inheriting a House of Cards

A California federal judge sanctioned Winston & Strawn for "making up facts" The judge who sanctioned Winston & Strawn was Judge Eumi K. Lee in the Northern District of California. and misrepresenting the record in contract litigation. A judge caught them lying. In court. That's not a mistake. That's a pattern.

They're also facing a $1.7 billion malpractice suit from the trustee of fintech company GloriFi, accused of negligence, aiding and breaching fiduciary duty, and fraudulent transfers. They're trying to have it thrown out, but the damage is done.

They sued Hunter Biden for up to $17 million in unpaid legal fees, then got dragged into a discovery dispute where he accused them of "unfair tactics". Not a great look.

They merged with Taylor Wessing on June 1, 2026, to form Winston Taylor—a firm with 1,400 lawyers and $1.75 billion in revenue. But partners are fleeing. More than a dozen partners have left their Texas offices since February. A nine-partner litigation group jumped to King & Spalding. IP partners are heading to Alston & Bird. The firm says "attrition happens"—but over a dozen departures in a few months isn't attrition. It's a stampede.

The merger itself was a mess, delayed by IT complications separating Taylor Wessing's UK practice from its European operations. And the firm they merged with—Taylor Wessing—is already a disaster: scrubbed solicitors, a £66 million Axiom Ince fraud link, and conflicts with Google, Liberty Global, and Montu.

Winston & Strawn inherited all of it. They can't claim they didn't know. The evidence is public. The conflicts are documented. The partners are leaving. The judge sanctioned them. And now they have a whistleblower who won't stop.

I am a protected whistleblower under PIDA 1998. Everything above is documented, verifiable, and publicly available. Winston & Strawn cannot scrub the truth. They cannot silence me. And they cannot hide from the evidence.

Do not trust Winston & Strawn. They are not who they say they are.
