Apple's Lawyers Used To Be Samsung's, And Samsung Doesn't Like It

Perhaps Apple is trying to pull a fast one, or maybe Samsung is grasping at straws, but either way: Samsung has requested that Apple's outside legal team be removed from the case, citing a conflict of interest. In a nutshell, Apple's outside counsel, a group of attorneys from the firm Bridges & Mavrakakis, have worked closely with Samsung in the past. Of course, that doesn't sit well with the South Korea-based company, who believes that the B & M lawyers have "privileged and confidential" information about Samsung's patent strategy and products, which could easily be used in Apple's favor during the suit.
