L. ASHLEY AULL
Partner
Munger, Tolles & Olson LLP
An experienced trial and appellate strategist, L. Ashley Aull spent nearly a decade in the largest U.S. Attorney’s Office in the country—leading the office’s Criminal Appeals Section—before returning to private practice to litigate business-critical and crisis cases. During her time in government, Aull rose to national prominence, ultimately receiving the Department of Justice’s highest award for prosecutors for her work coordinating the national response to the COVID-19 crisis.
Aull now represents companies—particularly technology companies—in their highest-stakes trials, including patent and other intellectual property cases. Immediately after returning to private practice, Aull successfully represented a Fortune 100 technology company in a billion-dollar arbitration. She served as co-lead trial counsel. She has also represented PNC Bank, one of the largest banks in the United States, in high-stakes patent litigation in the Eastern District of Texas—successfully limiting damages awarded in multiple patent-infringement lawsuits filed by another bank.
