Jeff Joyner’s experience includes transactions, litigation, government affairs and consulting to Fortune 100 companies, startups, investment funds and individuals, with a passion for issues that make an impact on jobs, economy, environment and humanity's well-being. Growing up on a creek in Oklahoma with tree houses next to a wildlife refuge with buffalos, eagles, horses, prairie dogs and a lake, with strong ties to indigenous peoples, is the fabric that drives Jeff's passions. Jeff has successfully litigated and transacted key intellectual property assets for over 25 years, and closed multi-billion dollar transactions for cutting edge climate technologies and sustainable energy. His broad legal and business acumen is of great value to his work as a trusted advisor on important legal and business decisions. For example, Jeff has been instrumental in handling significant transactions and bet the company litigation in addition to supporting clients by co-founding coalitions advocating for policy and legislative framework for industry clusters such as electric and autonomous vehicles. Jeff has implemented legal technologies to modernize law firm practices to better service clients.
