Partner
Crowell & Moring LLP
When stakes are high and corporate reputations hang in the balance, an array of the nation’s largest companies turn to Jennifer Romano, a partner in the LA office and a former Management Board member. As co-chair of the Litigation Group, Romano plays a leading role in defending clients in commercial litigation and against consumer class actions, particularly in the healthcare space. She regularly represents her clients in state and federal courts as well as in arbitration. Among her recent successes was her work on behalf of the Regents of the University of California amid the COVID-19 pandemic, when the DHS announced it would rescind visas of international students enrolled in online classes. Romano and her team went to work and the Administration backed down and reverted to the status quo. The win was largely made possible by the swift, decisive action by UC in filing the lawsuit.
