WASHINGTON - eTradeWire -- International trade law firm Jacobson Burton Kelley PLLC (JBK) is pleased to announce the addition of Jorge Vera, an experienced international trade and sanctions attorney, as Of Counsel in the Washington, DC office. Jorge brings a wealth of experience from his previous role as Senior Counsel for Trade and Sanctions at The Boeing Company and his co-leadership of the trade group at the Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Aramco).
At JBK Jorge will collaborate with the firm's attorneys to advise U.S. and international companies and financial institutions on a wide range of matters, including international trade, sanctions compliance, transactional issues, and enforcement.
"Jorge's extensive background in both international law firms and in-house counsel roles uniquely positions him to provide our clients with sound, practical, and actionable advice," said Doug Jacobson, the firm's managing partner. "His expertise in commercial and defense issues, sanctions matters, CFIUS, and national security affairs makes him a versatile and invaluable addition to our team."
With over a decade of experience in international trade, sanctions, and policy, Jorge has an impressive career trajectory. He began working at the Western Hemisphere office of the United States Trade Representative and served as an analyst at Philip Morris International, supporting the government affairs group. As a Michael Gadbaw Fellow in International Law & Policy at General Electric, Jorge honed his skills further. He has also worked as a consultant at a big four consulting firm, developing trade compliance plans, processes, and procedures for clients, and auditing entities under consent agreements.
