Attorneys & Legal Advocates
Explore lawyers, judges and legal scholars through their published advocacy, legal work, scholarship, philanthropy and professional exchanges involving Israel.

Neil Barr: Davis Polk’s chair and managing partner. In October 2023, he explained the firm’s decision to rescind offers to students linked to organizational statements about Israel and the Hamas attacks, describing those statements as contrary to the firm’s values. This documents a specific institutional response, rather than a general political platform. Source.
Joseph C. Shenker: Senior chair at Sullivan & Cromwell. He helped draft and circulate the November 2023 law-firm letter to law-school deans concerning antisemitism, Islamophobia, racism and other forms of hatred and harassment. His firm reports that more than 250 firms ultimately signed. Source.

Reporting at the time stated that the team’s role in ICC proceedings was unclear. Source.
William P. Barr: Former U.S. attorney general, named by Alan Dershowitz in November 2024 as a participant in his proposed legal initiative concerning Israel and ICC arrest warrants.
