ArentFox Schiff LLP is an American law firm with 600+ lawyers and policy professionals advising Fortune 500s, startups, and governments on national security, AI, energy, and other complex matters.
ArentFox Schiff LLP is an American law firm, not a security vendor - which matters for anyone scanning this board for hands-on engineering roles. The work that touches the cybersecurity domain runs through the firm's National Security and AI and Emerging Technologies practices, delivered as legal and policy advisory rather than product or tooling development. More than 600 lawyers and policy professionals handle the mandate, and the firm pairs attorneys with dedicated policy professionals on combined legal-and-policy engagements.
The client base is broad and consequential: Fortune 500 corporations, startups, international governments, non-profits, trade associations, and private individuals, spanning complex global matters and individual issues. Industry coverage relevant to security work includes National Security, AI and Emerging Technologies, Health Care, Life Sciences, Insurance and Reinsurance, Energy and Cleantech, Automotive and Transportation, Media and Entertainment, and Fashion and Retail - meaning threat models, regulatory exposure, and emerging-tech questions arrive from very different directions.
Geography is anchored in Washington, DC, with seven additional offices: Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Boston, San Francisco, Lake Forest, and Ann Arbor. The firm also serves clients internationally. ArentFox Schiff was formed through the merger of two established practices, and was named to the BTI Client Service A-Team for 2026.
