David Wales, the leader of law firm Jones Day’s global antitrust and competition practice, has left the firm and is poised to become a partner at Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom, according to sources familiar with the information.
Wales joined Jones Day in 2009, after three years at the Federal Trade Commission where he was acting director of the Bureau of Competition from 2008 to 2009. He was previously a partner at Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft and Shearman & Sterling.
Wales’ exit marks the latest in a run of partner departures for Jones Day, including three who have left the firm’s London office during the past month.
