Kirkland & Ellis is one of the world's most prestigious and profitable law firms, and several of its partners represented Jeffrey Epstein during his 2008 Florida case, including Ken Starr (former Whitewater prosecutor) and Jay Lefkowitz (former White House policy advisor and special envoy to North Korea).
Kirkland & Ellis appears in the documents primarily through references to Epstein's high-powered legal defense team in the 2008 Florida case. The firm's partners Ken Starr and Jay Lefkowitz are repeatedly mentioned in news articles and government records discussing Epstein's controversial non-prosecution agreement. Documents also reference meetings between prosecutor Alex Acosta (who also had professional roots at Kirkland & Ellis) and Lefkowitz to negotiate the deal. Additionally, the firm appears in numerous automated law firm newsletters and directories that are unrelated to the Epstein case itself.
