Elliot Gaiser

Ohio

Elliot Gaiser serves in the Ohio Attorney General’s Office as the Solicitor General of Ohio.

Immediately before joining the office, he worked in the issues and appeals practice at Jones Day in Columbus, Ohio. In that role, his practice focused on appeals, dispositive trial-level matters, and strategic counsel to clients in a range of industries regarding litigation and regulatory matters. Elliot has also litigated disputes ranging from antitrust, bankruptcy, and election law to administrative and constitutional questions—both in Ohio and across the country.

Elliot previously served as a law clerk for Associate Justice Samuel A. Alito, Jr., at the Supreme Court of the United States; for Judge Neomi Rao on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit; and Judge Edith H. Jones on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.

He received his law degree from the University of Chicago in 2016. Before law school, he worked as a management consultant and a fellow at a research institution focused on anti-poverty programs. He received his undergraduate degree from Hillsdale College in 2012, where he played the cello in the orchestra and edited the opinions page of the campus newspaper.
