Three more litigation partners have left Paul Weiss for Dunn Isaacson Rhee, the Washington DC boutique recently established by four former litigators from the Wall Street firm.
The trio includes Rush Atkinson, who joined Paul Weiss as a partner last February after more than 12 years in the Justice Department, most recently as associate deputy attorney general, and junior partners Kyle Smith and Melissa Zappala, who both previously worked together at Boies Schiller Flexner before joining Paul Weiss in 2020.
