Gay Associate Who Sued S&C Over Bias Joins Clifford Chance

Posted on Tuesday 29 July 2008

The ex-Sullivan & Cromwell associate who brought a highly publicized sexual orientation discrimination suit against his former firm has been hired by Clifford Chance. Aaron B. Charney will join the British law firm's New York office as a fifth-year mergers and acquisitions associate. Charney's ability to land another law firm position after being involved in such a high-profile suit against his former firm suggests such litigation may no longer be career suicide, provided the lawyer has desirable skills.
