The Washingtonian named WilmerHale Partner Jamie Gorelick one of the “Power 150,” a list of Washington, D.C.’s most influential people in business, culture, real estate, religion, education, law and more. The honor was determined by a survey of over 2,100 area leaders. Ms. Gorelick, a long-time litigator and partner in the firm's Litigation Department, co-chairs the Defense, National Security and Government Contacts Department, and chairs the Public Policy and Strategy Department at WilmerHale.

She arrived at the Justice Department from the Department of Defense, where she was General Counsel. Prior to joining WilmerHale, Gorelick was the Vice Chair of Fannie Mae.
