Welcome
to
our
daily
feature,
Quote
of
the
Day.
A
Supreme
Court
clerkship
is
unmatched
in
terms
of
preparing
lawyers
for
appellate
and
Supreme
Court
practice.
These
10
lawyers
come
to
the
Firm
battle-tested
and
ready
to
serve
our
clients.
They
join
an
already
formidable
issues
and
appeals
practice
and
will
add
to
the
acumen
and
tenacity
that
are
the
hallmarks
of
Jones
Day
attorneys.
—
Traci
L.
Lovitt,
leader
of
Jones
Day’s
issues
and
appeals
practice,
in
a
statement
offered
to
the
National
Law
Journal,
on
the
firm’s
recent
addition
of
10
former
Supreme
Court
clerks
to
its
associate
roster.
The
10
attorneys,
evenly
split
between
men
and
women,
all
clerked
for
the
conservative
wing
of
the
Court.
They
will
each
reportedly
receive
signing
bonuses
of
$450,000,
or
perhaps
even
more.
