Theodore M Hester (Ted)

Ted Hester is a senior partner at King & Spalding who has been recognized by Chambers USA in each of the past several years as  “one of the foremost Congressional investigations experts in the market” and whom clients describe as “someone you can trust with just about anything -- he’s one of the most forthright, honest people I’ve met.”  One client observed:   “He leaves no stone unturned when it comes to devoting time to our organization.”  Chambers USA describes King & Spalding as “particularly prominent in the field of Congressional Investigations” and “always ‘spot on in its strategic advice.’”  Finally, quoting Chambers USA, “‘a deliberate, careful and creative thinker,’ Ted Hester draws praise for his attention to detail and impressive grasp of the legal, business, political and public relations implications of situations.”
