Paul Hastings Investigation & White Collar Defense partner Daniel Prince has been named to the Los Angeles Business Journal’s 2023 “Leaders of Influence: Litigators & Trial Attorneys” list. Mr. Prince is noted for leading the Paul Hastings team to a complete victory for retired Navy Rear Admiral Bruce Loveless in what has been described as the “worst corruption scandal” in the history of the U.S. Navy. Paul Hastings represented Adm. Loveless pre-trial and at trial, having reviewed approximately 14 million documents, prepared key motions, and participated in an evidentiary hearing during trial on the government’s withholding of exculpatory material. The government obtained more than two dozen guilty pleas in this matter. Following a 15-week trial and approximately three weeks of deliberations, the jury returned convictions on four defendants but reached no verdict against Adm. Loveless.

The Los Angeles Business Journal’s annual “Leader of Influence: Litigators & Trial Attorneys” list recognizes the very best litigators and trial attorneys in the region.
