Biography

Clint Morrison is a commercial litigator, trial lawyer, and problem solver. A magna cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School who clerked on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and a former actor who previously worked at a government relations and public affairs firm, Clint brings a unique perspective to his work helping clients find creative, effective solutions to their most complex and consequential challenges.

Clint has extensive trial experience in federal and state courts throughout the country. Recently, Clint played a key role in two trial wins: a $2 billion jury verdict in a high-profile trade secrets case between two software companies (the largest verdict in the history of the State of Virginia), and a victory for client Howard University in a bench trial in the Southern District of New York establishing the University’s superior claim of title to a historically significantly work by the renowned artist Charles White.

Clint focuses on complex commercial litigation and litigates cases involving trade secrets and intellectual property, contractual and business disputes, advertising litigation and unfair competition, and whistleblower claims under the False Claims Act. Clint also maintains an active high-stakes art law practice.

In 2025, Clint was selected for Lawdragon X – The Next Generation, a guide evaluating which young lawyers and law practices have had a significant impact in the field and determining the "next generation of legal leaders in America and around the world."
