Boies Schiller Flexner LLP is an American law firm based in New York City. The firm was founded by David Boies and Jonathan D. Schiller, in 1997, who, in 1999, were joined by Donald L. Flexner, former partner with Crowell & Moring, then forming Boies, Schiller & Flexner.
The firm has become known for its involvement in high-profile litigation, having represented the Department of Justice in the antitrust action United States v. Microsoft, as well as Vice President Gore in the Supreme Court case Bush v. Gore. More recently, Boies successfully challenged the constitutionality of California's Proposition 8 in Perry v. Brown, and represented the National Football League in the antitrust litigation initiated by the players' union.[1] The firm has drawn controversy[2] for its aggressive tactics during representation of Harvey Weinstein amidst sexual abuse allegations[3][4] and the now-defunct blood testing startup Theranos.[5][6]
David Boies, alongside the firm's managing partner Sigrid McCawley, represented Viriginia Giuffre in her civil case against Prince Andrew free of charge.[7] In February 2022, shortly before Boies and McCawley were due to fly to London for a deposition of Prince Andrew, he settled the New York lawsuit for an undisclosed sum and a "substantial donation" to Giuffre's charity, which supports victims of trafficking.[8]
