Baker Botts L.L.P. relies on ‘trial lawyers who are good on their feet, good writers, and good communicators’. The firm is most active in matters in the technology and energy industries, though its work in big-ticket merger litigation in the financial services, healthcare and consumer products sectors continues to grow. Danny David in Houston, who ‘has the ability to see through complex issues and distil them to what matters’ and is now the firm’s managing partner, leads the litigation practice along with co-chair Bridget Moore in Washington DC, while Jessica Pulliam in Dallas and ‘big picture thinker’ Amy Hefley in Houston are co-chairs of the securities litigation group. Key partner Richard Harper in New York continues to represent John C. Malone, Greg B. Maffei, and Liberty Broadband Corporation in a shareholder derivative lawsuit in Delaware Chancery Court challenging a $5bn Liberty Broadband investment as part of the Charter Communications-Time Warner Cable-Bright House Networks merger.
