In a recent feature, The Lawyer profiled Jenner & Block’s Global Hearing Preparation Practice and its leading role supporting organizations involved in public hearings worldwide. The article highlights Jenner’s reputation as the go-to firm for preparing clients to appear before legislative committees, inquiries, and other public forums around the world. With a sharp rise in public scrutiny and legal risk across jurisdictions—from Washington D.C. to Westminster to Canberra—our team helps global clients navigate the unique legal, reputational, and political complexities of high-stakes public testimony.
Led by practice co-chairs Emily Loeb, Joanna Ludlam, and Sam Ungar, the team brings together a multidisciplinary group of lawyers with backgrounds in litigation, investigation, government service, communications, and journalism. As The Lawyer notes, Jenner is believed to be the first law firm to offer a dedicated international public hearing preparation practice, helping clients maintain a consistent global strategy while adapting to local contexts.
This cross-border team includes partners Josh Hsu and Jonathan Skladany, special counsel William Jones, and associates Bradley Pough, Kate Mather, Rachel Palermo, Andrew Santana, Erica Turret, Isabel Farhi, Michael Brady, and Joshua Kell. Together, they’ve supported clients across a range of industries facing inquiries before the U.S. Congress, U.K. Parliament, and similar legislative & regulatory bodies on five continents.
