Cooley, alongside co-counsel from Protect Democracy, filed an amicus brief with the US Supreme Court on April 8, 2024, in the case of Trump v. United States on behalf of 19 retired four-star generals and admirals and former secretaries of the Army, Navy and Air Force opposing former President Donald Trump’s assertion of presidential immunity from criminal prosecution.

Cooley won a high-profile jury trial in Los Angeles, successfully defending the Kardashian-Jenner family against claims brought by Blac Chyna, whose legal name is Angela White, for defamation and intentional interference with her E! network talent agreement. The plaintiff sought more than $100 million in damages. Partners Michael Rhodes and Michelle Doolin led the Cooley team.
