Jones Day announced that Philip Pfeffer will join the Firm as a partner in its Business & Tort Litigation Practice, and will be based in Jones Day’s New York Office.

Mr. Pfeffer is a trusted advisor to numerous global companies in the consumer products sector and advises them on their most important commercial disputes around the world. He has coordinated the defense of class action products liability lawsuits in various jurisdictions, and advised consumer product manufacturers on issues of regulatory compliance and in judicial challenges of regulation. Mr. Pfeffer also has experience working on a wide range of other legal disputes, from complex multi-national commercial matters and investment treaty law cases to international trade law disputes.

“Philip’s extensive experience in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa will be a tremendous resource for assisting our clients in managing product liability litigation and regulatory issues worldwide,” said John Majoras, who co-leads Jones Day’s Business & Tort Litigation Practice. “His arrival augments our ability to provide comprehensive defense strategies to clients facing product liability challenges. I am delighted to welcome him to Jones Day.”

At Jones Day, Mr. Pfeffer joins an acclaimed worldwide team of more than 400 experienced trial lawyers who serve clients in business and government disputes, torts and civil litigation, from pre-suit counseling through trial and appeal. He will collaborate with Jones Day litigators in New York and around the globe on product liability defense and advising on compliance strategies to mitigate legal risks associated with product manufacturing and distribution.

“Philip’s global perspective and deep understanding of product liability regimes both in the U.S. and abroad will be invaluable assets to our clients in New York and worldwide,” said Leon F. DeJulius, Jr., Partner-in-Charge of Jones Day’s New York Office. “His proven track record in managing complex litigation and regulatory matters aligns perfectly with our commitment to exceptional client service. We are pleased that he has joined Jones Day and welcome him to our team here in New York.”

Mr. Pfeffer is ranked in Chambers UK 2024 for “Product Liability: Mainly Defendant” and is recognized in Legal 500 UK 2024 as a leading individual for “Product Liability: Defendant.” He earned his law degree from Fordham University School of Law and his undergraduate degree from Brandeis University. He has served as an Adjunct Professor of Law at Fordham University School of Law and has lectured on product liability at the University of Pennsylvania Law School.

“Jones Day’s Business & Tort Litigation Practice is recognized by major corporations around the world for its work on important commercial disputes that are litigated across all major jurisdictions, and the Firm is particularly renowned for its successful work on some of the most prominent product liability cases to be tried in recent decades,” said Mr. Pfeffer. “I am excited to join a global law firm with such an elite business litigation practice that is supported by a culture of seamless collaboration. I look forward to working with my new colleagues in New York and around the world.”
