In George W. Bush's solicitor general's office, Paul Clement built a reputation as one of the most skilled appellate advocates of his generation as he argued the trickiest of cases before the U.S. Supreme Court and appellate courts.

Settlement With Analysts Could Fuel Litigation

The California Department of Corporations expects a new wave of securities litigation now that federal regulators have reached a historic settlement with investment banks over analyst conflicts of interest.
