New plaintiffs-side appellate boutique

NLJ has Goodwin Alums Launch Firm Focused on Plaintiffs-Side Appellate Work -- The boutique looks to build off the success of Gupta Wessler, the firm founded in 2012 by public interest litigator Deepak Gupta that has racked up victories at the U.S. Supreme Court on behalf of consumers and workers.
Two former Goodwin Procter partners and an experienced Washington, D.C., appellate lawyer have opened a boutique law firm—Zimmer, Citron & Clarke—that aims to fill a niche: representing plaintiffs in high-stakes appeals. .... The three have clerked for 11 federal judges, including Zimmer for Justice Elena Kagan; Clarke for Justices Stephen Breyer and David Souter; and Citron for Kagan and Justice Sandra Day O’Connor.
