Jackson Kelly, along with the state of West Virginia and the nation, mourns the passing of former governor and senator Jay Rockefeller. “He was such a passionate advocate for the people of West Virginia and a great mentor to so many of us,” says Firm Attorney and Former Managing Member Ellen Cappellanti.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Rockefeller family.

He served as a United States senator from West Virginia from 1985 to 2015 and previously as governor of West Virginia from 1977 to 1985.
