Established in 1973, BakerHostetler’s Washington office is home to many practice and firm leaders, including Chairman Paul Schmidt. We collaborate with colleagues across the nation, developing innovative strategies to help companies address complex issues involving litigation, transactions, tax, intellectual property, data security, labor and regulation.
We are fully committed to our clients, offering the full range of defense services when they face internal, white collar, congressional and Securities and Exchange Commission investigations; class-action litigation; and administrative enforcement actions.
For decades, Chambers USA, Legal 500 and other rating services have recognized the strength and breadth of our Washington lawyers, many of whom have served in high-level positions on government commissions and in federal agencies, Congress and the White House.
Collegiality is one of our core values, and we are dedicated to inclusion, empowering each team member to learn and lead every day. Our deep concern for people living in poverty and on the fringes of society, particularly in our nation’s capital, informs our charitable work.
