Patrick Perkins joined our New Lawyers Group (NLG) in 2013. The NLG provides our newest lawyers with the opportunity to gain exposure to different practice areas and lawyering styles before making a commitment to a specific practice. Individuals in the NLG may focus on a particular area of practice, or compare practices, during their first year with Jones Day.

While attending law school, Patrick worked in the Human Trafficking Clinic where he helped victims of human trafficking apply for legal status in the United States. Prior to law school he volunteered at an NGO (nongovernmental organization) in China where he worked to educate migrant workers on their employment rights. Patrick is a member of the J. Reuben Clark Law Society.
