Star litigator David Boies plans to step down from the chairmanship of Boies Schiller Flexner next year after almost three decades at its helm.

Boies’s career includes his victory in the US antitrust case against Microsoft Corp. and his loss representing Al Gore against George W. Bush in their epic legal battle over the 2000 presidential election. It also includes criticism over his representation of Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, the convicted sexual predator.

Most recently, Boies represented victims of Jeffrey Epstein in a class action against JPMorgan Chase & Co.

The Wall Street Journal reported Boies’s plan to step down earlier. A law firm spokeswoman confirmed 2024 would be the 82-year-old lawyer’s last year as chairman and that the partners would vote on his successor in December.

“David’s leadership and guidance have been a constant for Boies Schiller Flexner since the firm opened its doors,” Managing Partners Matthew L. Schwartz, Sigrid McCawley and Alan Vickery said in a statement. “As we have taken over the day-to-day affairs of the firm over the last several years, we’ve benefitted tremendously from his advice and experience.”

They said they would “continue to benefit from his input as our partner and as a member of our Executive Committee.”
