American Bar Association sues to block Trump's attacks on law firms

  • On June 16, 2025, the American Bar Association filed a federal lawsuit in Washington, D.C., seeking to prevent the Trump administration from enforcing executive orders aimed at pressuring law firms.
  • The lawsuit challenges President Trump's executive orders that revoked attorneys' security clearances and limited their ability to interact with government personnel and participate in federal contracting opportunities.
  • Four law firms sued earlier and won court injunctions against these orders, with Susman Godfrey representing the ABA in the new lawsuit claiming unconstitutional intimidation.
  • The case argues that the orders violate the First Amendment by coercing law firms to abandon certain clients, while a White House spokesperson called the lawsuit "clearly frivolous."
  • This legal conflict highlights tensions over the independence of legal professionals and may affect the judiciary's ability to check executive power.
