Texas Law Firm Withdraws from $150M Contract to Represent Migrant Children The recent withdrawal of Texas law firm Burke Law Group from a lucrative contract to represent unaccompanied migrant children raises more questions than answers about the motivations behind this deal.

Burke Law Group's involvement was marred by controversy over its ties to the Trump administration.
