After graduating with honors from the University of California, Hastings College of the Law in 1978, Posner moved from San Francisco to New York and started practicing law as a litigation associate at the New York–Wall Street law firm Cravath, Swaine & Moore. After leaving Cravath in 1981 he was a co-founder of the New York firm, Posner & Ferrara. It was there that he became involved in an ultimately unsuccessful 4-year pro bono effort on behalf of victims of concentration camp experiments against the West German government and the family of Dr. Josef Mengele. After the publication of his first book about Nazi Dr. Josef Mengele, Posner was “Of Counsel” to Posner & Ferrara. In 2010 he began a series of high-profile client representations. Among them were three brothers of Afghanistan’s then-president Hamid Karzai; Posner represented Mahmud Karzai, Qayum Karzai, and the so-called “King of Kandahar Ahmed Wali Karzai, who was assassinated in July 2011. Posner also represented Haji Ruhullah, an Afghan security contractor described by “The Washington Post” as “a leading warlord in Southern Afghanistan.” Posner successfully defended Ruhullah against U.S. Army efforts to debar the Afghan from doing business with the U.S. government. Posner also assisted other high-profile defendants. He advised Dr. Conrad Murray, charged with manslaughter in the death of pop icon Michael Jackson as part of a British documentary over Murray’s role. Posner provided pro-bono advice to Viktor Bout, the Russian arms dealer nicknamed in the press as the “Merchant of Death” and played by actor Nicolas Cage in the film, “Lord of War.” According to Posner, his legal training has given him a “big” edge in his primary career as an investigative reporter and author. Posner is a member of the New York and Washington D.C. Bars and the International Criminal Bar.
