Former Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares Joins Torridon Law PLLC and Torridon Group LLC
WASHINGTON, Feb. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Torridon Law PLLC and Torridon Group LLC are pleased to announce that former Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares is joining as a Partner. The addition of Miyares adds to Torridon's long and growing list of former senior level government officials, including former U.S. Attorney General William Barr, former Counsel to the President Pat Cipollone, former U.S. Secretary of Energy Dan Brouillette, and former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
Before joining Torridon, Mr. Miyares served as the 48th Attorney General of Virginia. As the Commonwealth's lawyer and top law enforcement officer, Mr. Miyares focused his service on improving public safety, strengthening economic growth, combatting the deadly impact of opioids and fentanyl, and robust consumer protection division focused on protecting Virginians from corporate misconduct.
Under Mr. Miyares' leadership, Virginia experienced a remarkable 30% decrease in murders statewide and a double-digit drop in overall violent crime through his Ceasefire Virginia initiative, which increased prosecutions of repeat offenders in high-crime areas. Mr. Miyares secured $1.2 billion for Virginia for opioid abuse settlements and also created the One Pill Can Kill initiative, which resulted in a 46.7% drop in fatal fentanyl overdoses statewide – the largest decrease in addiction deaths of any state in the nation.
Mr. Miyares has been recognized by national organizations for his leadership efforts among the State Attorneys General, including serving on the Executive Committee of the National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG). "As Attorney General, Jason led in the bipartisan effort to combat human trafficking by engaging directly with constituents, law enforcement, and service providers across Virginia," said Karen White, Executive Director of the Attorney General Alliance. "He and his team were vital contributors to AGA meetings and panels, working with other attorneys general to share Virginia's experience and strengthen efforts to protect victims and hold traffickers accountable."
"We are thrilled to have Jason join the Torridon family.
