Biography

Elizabeth Pittman is an associate in the litigation section of Jackson Walker and represents clients at trial and appellate stages in both federal and state court. She has represented clients in a wide range of complex and sensitive matters including antitrust, government contractor defense, breach of contract, and business torts. Elizabeth plays an active role in all phases of litigation and has taken over 20 depositions, coordinated large discovery and internal investigation reviews, and has briefed novel issues to the Texas Supreme Court and various federal courts.

Prior to joining Jackson Walker, Elizabeth served as an antitrust research assistant to Dean C. Paul Rogers III, during which she researched, edited, and drafted several portions of C. Paul Rogers III, Stephen Calkins, Mark R. Patterson & William R. Andersen, Antitrust Law: Policy and Practice (5th ed. 2020). Elizabeth also served as Editor-in-Chief of the SMU International Law Review Association and a judicial extern to the Hon. Jane J. Boyle of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas.

When she is not assisting clients, Elizabeth devoutly follows SEC sports, enjoys participating in any athletic event, and studies wine (currently a WSET Level 2 Sommelier student).
