Skadden is an international law firm that generates big revenue from big clients. It represented District-based Carlyle Group in the unwinding of its European affiliate Carlyle Capital. It represented Bear Stearns in its roughly $270 million acquisition by J.P. Morgan Chase. The firm is not all work and no play. Employees did the catwalk down the "Skaddwalk" during an in-office fashion show — a light reminder to keep up appearances in the summer months.
