Bloomberg Law article excerpts:
Anapol Weiss announced Tuesday that it’s adding Walsh Law’s litigation team. Anapol Weiss will have about half a dozen offices scattered across the US, including in Los Angeles, Minneapolis, and Washington, DC.
Alex Walsh is co-chair of the trial committee overseeing multidistrict litigation against Uber Technolgies Inc., alleging the rideshare company didn’t adequately protect passengers from sexual assault and harassment by drivers. She also is on the plaintiffs’ steering committee in a class action against Meta Platforms Inc., targeting the Facebook and Instagram owner for causing addition and harm to children.
The firm also is adding Walsh Law attorneys Paige Boldt, Holly Dolejsi, Patrick Huyett, and William Smith.
Walsh founded her boutique in 2021 after a decade-plus tenure at Big Law firms—including Baker Botts and Paul Weiss. Walsh also was an original co-founder of Wilkinson Walsh, which was renamed to Wilkinson Stekloff when Walsh launched her own venture.
Anapol, which specializes in personal injury and mass torts matters, has been looking to grow this year. In March, the firm hired Kristen Gibbons Feden, who prosecuted comedian Bill Cosby in a 2018 assault case.
