Senior Lawyer Faces Career Impact After Viral Video of Kiss with Junior Associate
Nathaniel Cullerton, a married senior lawyer at New York's Wachtell Lipton, is reportedly being forced out after a viral video showed him kissing a junior associate, Kelsey Borenzweig, in Central Park. The video, recorded by a TikTok user, led to Cullerton being placed on leave and losing a planned move to rival firm Gibson Dunn. While still formally employed, Cullerton is separating from Wachtell. The incident has sparked professional consequences but no reported legal actions against the firm.
