Testimonials

Jack is one of the most talented and professional lawyers in the country. He represented a company I own in several complex, multi-state arbitrations and his wisdom, strategic planning, and skill resulted in our achieving an extremely successful outcome. In addition to being an incredible lawyer, Jack also has excellent interpersonal skills, a unique capability to read a room, and is an extremely effective and shrewd negotiator.

CEO of Energy Company

You had such a meaningful impact on the case. Thank you for bringing your best to [our firm] and for contributing so well to the seamless coordination with [Co-counsel].

General Counsel of Litigation, Global Investment Bank (Dec ’20)

Jack is not just smart, he is strategic, insightful, and calm under pressure. Whether it’s his ability to see things others don’t, or his coolness under pressure, Jack is a remarkable partner in business and in law. One of the many reasons he is effective is that he has a fantastic ability to relate to people on an interpersonal basis, socially, in a business setting, and in the courtroom with judges and juries as well.

General Counsel of Media Company

A great presentation and exactly the sort of energy we need .. the fresh, comprehensive review was encouraging.

Global Claims Officer, Global Insurance Company (Feb ’21)

Jack Baughman represented me and my wife in a challenging matter, and we could not have asked for a better lawyer. He was easy to reach and communicate with, timely with all actions relating to our matter, and firm but reasonable in all negotiations on our behalf.

Client with Important Personal Matter

Jack is a superb trial lawyer in all respects. He commands the courtroom. His judgment and instincts are excellent. I was in awe watching him at depositions and in court. He was very effective in convincingly presenting the testimony of our witnesses and in his devastating cross-examinations of opposing witnesses. He has a great strategic sense, and earns the respect of all. He clearly had great credibility with the judge.

Co-Counsel in Precedent-Setting Delaware Chancery Court Trial

Jack has an unparalleled ability to see and anticipate, from the very beginning of a case, how each stage should play out, through discovery, dispositive motions, trial, and even appeal. It gives him an enormous advantage over most attorneys who are focused on the present task. Everything he does, even the smallest of decisions, is in service of his broader strategic vision for the case. In other words, he can see the trees and the forest.

Co-counsel on Multiple Cases

Those of us who have had the good fortune of practicing with him have seen (and learned from) the way he approaches every case for every client. He gains a deep understanding of the facts and an appreciation for his clients’ goals; he spends time getting to know the businesses he works with, including spending as much time as he can with the people who make up those institutions; and from the day he takes on a new matter he is preparing the case to win at trial.

Long Time Colleague

Jack is one of the very best lawyers I have ever worked with. And, across 20+ years as a deal professional and through dozens of private equity transactions, I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of talented counsel. Jack’s pragmatic business judgement, combined with technical and process excellence, were what first impressed me, and over time in our work together, he is someone I have come to trust and rely on.

Founder of Private Equity Firm
