Requesting updates to this page

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Jay Rothman is no longer Chairman and CEO at Foley & Lardner LLP. The new Chairman and CEO is Daljit Doogal. Can we please get this updated to reflect the change in leadership?

Edit comment not consistent with the edit (see the changes shown in the DIFF listing)

This report is about [half of] the "Edit comment" for this edit:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Foley_%26_Lardner&diff=prev&oldid=890201445

That edit comment says:

(Added a notable employee Brian Hagedorn, who also worked for this law firm. And I added that Lisa Neubauer is a candidate for Wisconsin Supreme court.)
(Tag: Visual edit)

; but the portion of that edit comment after the word "And", -- (namely << "I added that Lisa Neubauer is a candidate for Wisconsin Supreme court." >>), -- does not agree with the changes made, according to the DIFF listing.

The problem

The change made, (other than the one involving adding Brian Hagedorn), was an update to the entry for "Joan F. Kessler, Wisconsin Court of Appeals Judge"; ...NOT to the entry for "Lisa Neubauer".

I am not sure whether the article is correct now ("as of" that "Revision as of 13:33, 30 March 2019" edit); but if it is, then that edit comment is wrong.

(Perhaps worse), if that edit comment is right, then the article is wrong now -- (that is, the addition of "and candidate for the Wisconsin Supreme Court," may have been done ...in the wrong place in the article).

Any comments?

Either way, [it seems that] something is wrong. --Mike Schwartz (talk) 07:53, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello. We have opened two new offices. We opened an office in Raleigh, North Carolina in 2024, and we added an office in Nashville, Tennessee, in 2025.

Here is a press release about the Tennessee office: https://www.foley.com/news/2025/06/foley-opens-nashville-office-addition-three-corporate-partners/

Here is a press release about the North Carolina office: https://www.foley.com/news/2024/07/foleys-entry-into-raleigh-market-receives-widespread-media-coverage/

I also added an updated logo, and I need to add in the right copyright information. It is a Copyrighted non-free / fair use logo, and it was created by my firm, and I do have permission to add it here. I'm happy to send more information along if I need to -- I had trouble figuring out where to put this information.

Thank you very much for your help.

I'm the editor who advised Athanasi make a COI editreq. A company providing information about where their offices are located would be covered by WP:ABOUTSELF, sourcing does not appear to be an issue here. fifteen thousand two hundred twenty four (talk) 02:56, 11 June 2025 (UTC)

You need independent, the sources are from your website…. Valorrr ^{(lets chat)} 14:00, 11 June 2025 (UTC)

Please carefully read WP:ABOUTSELF before answering any more edit requests because this is not correct, and I'm a third-party unrelated to Foley & Lardner. fifteen thousand two hundred twenty four (talk) 22:47, 11 June 2025 (UTC)

Go ahead: I have reviewed these proposed changes and suggest that you go ahead and make the proposed changes to the page. Valorrr ^{(lets chat)} 14:01, 11 June 2025 (UTC)

Thank you, both. I have made these edits. I appreciate the help. 204.87.40.1 (talk) 15:09, 11 June 2025 (UTC)

Edit request

Hello,

I would like to request an edit, please. In the last paragraph under "History," it says that one of our notable clients was the Nicholas Maduro regime. That is not accurate. In 2019, a partner of Foley & Lardner agreed to the engagement of an individual in the Venezuelan government (not President Maduro and not the government of Venezuela itself). Upon hearing of the engagement, firm leadership immediately decided to terminate the agreement. We never did any work as part of this engagement, and this person is not a client.

There is more information here: https://www.politico.com/news/2020/01/30/nicolas-maduro-law-firm-contract-109685

So, I would like to remove "The Nicholas Maduro regime in Venezuela.": Notable clients of the firm include the Nicholas Maduro regime in Venezuela,

The user below has a request that an edit be made to Foley & Lardner. That user has an actual or apparent conflict of interest.
The requested edits backlog is very high. Please be extremely patient. There are currently 402 requests waiting for review.

Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies.
