Schuyler Schouten advises clients on high-stakes regulatory matters, with a focus on international trade, national security, and emerging and strategic technologies. He has helped some of the world's largest institutions navigate government inquiries, international crises, and regulatory reviews and, where warranted, push back against government overreach. A former White House sanctions lawyer, "indispensable and indefatigable" top aide to Henry Kissinger, and contributor to best-selling books on China and artificial intelligence (AI), Schuyler is a trusted guide for clients navigating today's turbulent and complex legal and geopolitical landscape.

Schuyler has extensive experience with the laws, regulations, and "emergency" authorities affecting international transactions and supply chains. As Senior Associate Counsel to the President and Deputy Legal Advisor to the National Security Council (NSC), he provided Presidential- and Cabinet-level advice on sanctions, foreign investment, Defense Production Act, treaty law, and energy regulatory issues and was the White House's legal coordinator with the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) and Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) during transformative growth in their legal authorities and policy roles.

At Jones Day, Schuyler has helped obtain key regulatory approvals for some of the first and most prominent exits of Western companies from Russia; successfully represented critical infrastructure providers in emergency negotiations over COVID orders; and has helped resolve, without penalty, inquiries and disclosures involving Congressional committees, OFAC, the Commerce Department, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. He supports clients in the software, semiconductor, biotech, pharmaceutical, private equity, banking and fintech, food and beverage, real estate, energy, and aerospace industries.
