President Donald Trump has an axe to grind with Seattle’s largest law firm.

A Trump-issued executive order says Perkins Coie participates in “dishonest and dangerous activity” that has affected the country for “decades.”

The order could have an impact on the firm’s ability to practice law in Seattle, and around the country.

UW Law Professor from Practice Doug Ross will tell us how.
