"The shadow DOJ": Law firm knee deep in state's many hot-button issues. (Wisconsin State Journal, 1/22/2012)

Excerpt:   Lester Pines, a prominent liberal-leaning attorney with Cullen Weston Pines & Bach, which has handled dozens of political cases, said Michael Best & Friedrich owes at least part of its GOP workload to its specialized skill set.

Founded in 1848, the firm employs more than 220 attorneys and can count among its numbers a former counsel to the governor, two former deputy attorneys general and two former assistant attorneys general.

"There are just not a lot of firms that can do what they do," Pines said.
