A London-based partner at the newly merged A&O Shearman was driving his Porsche Cayenne through New Forest in England when his career took a decided turn for the worst. The unnamed partner was pulled over by police and it turns out his blood alcohol was three times the legal limit. No bueno.

As reported by RollOnFriday, the partner recently pleaded guilty to the “drink-driving” charge. He had his license suspended and was fined £1,000. He’s also out of a job.

A spokesperson for A&O Shearman said, “The Firm takes such matters very seriously. The partner in question has accepted responsibility for this personal matter and has elected to resign from the firm. We wish him the best going forward.”

His actual departure from the firm will take some time, however, as the firm works to transfer the matter he works on.

As if the terrible harm you could do to yourself and others wasn’t enough to encourage the use of Uber, perhaps derailing your Biglaw career will get through to some people.
