Jones Day is an American multinational law firm based in Washington, D.C. As of 2023, it is one of the largest law firms in the United States, with 2,302 attorneys, and among the highest-grossing in the world with revenues of $2.5 billion.[1] Founded in 1893, the firm was originally headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio. It has represented over half of the companies in the Fortune 500, including Goldman Sachs, General Motors, McDonald's, and Bridgestone.[3][4] Jones Day has also represented the campaign of current president Donald Trump.[5]
Many attorneys from Jones Day have served as federal officials or judges, including U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, former White House Counsel Don McGahn, former U.S. Solicitor General Noel Francisco, former Federal Trade Commission chairwoman Deborah Platt Majoras, and U.S. court of appeals judges Jeffrey Sutton, Gregory G. Katsas, Timothy B. Dyk, Chad Readler, and Eric E. Murphy.[6][7][8]
Jones Day has historically focused on corporate law, but has increasingly shifted to aiding the Republican Party and the American conservative movement since the 2000.[9] This shift began when Stephen Brogan became managing partner of Jones Day in 2003.[9] Subsequently, the firm increasingly took on ideologically charged cases and causes. During the Barack Obama administration, Jones Day challenged the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.[9] The firm also served as outside counsel for the Trump 2016 and Trump 2020 campaigns.[10]
