By Richard Binder

Five lawyers from Los Angeles-based Glaser Weil Fink Jacobs Howard & Shapiro have left to form their own litigation boutique firm. All five are business litigators.

Eric Early, managing partner of the new firm, Early Sullivan Wright Gizer & McRae, said the timing was right to leave Glaser Weil, an entertainment litigation firm where he worked for 15 years. In addition to Early, the new firm, which opened its doors this week, was co-founded by Bryan Sullivan, William "Billy" Wright and Scott Gizer, who were partners at Glaser Weil; and Devin McRae, who was an associate.
