Jackson Kelly PLLC, known as Jackson Kelly, is a full service law firm and one of the 250 largest law firms headquartered in the United States.[1] The firm, which has a strong presence in Appalachia and the Midwestern United States, was formed in 1822 when Benjamin H. Smith began practicing law in what was then Charleston, Virginia. U.S. News & World Report ranks the firm as the nation's best in mining and mineral law, but as a full-service law firm, Jackson Kelly provides legal counseling and litigation to a wide range of clients across many practice areas. The firm employs more than 160 lawyers in offices throughout West Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Washington, D.C., and Colorado.
