Jon Eisenman is not a quitter. The appellate lawyer in Los Angeles tried five times to appear on “Jeopardy!” before he snagged a spot on the TV answer-and-question game show. So far, he's won three games and is due to play his fourth on July 5.

Eisenman, who is a former associate in the D.C. office of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, now works as an associate at L.A.-based Greines, Martin, Stein & Richland, an appellate boutique that opened a San Francisco office last year.

His clients include a company called Eleanor Licensing, which owns the rights to “Eleanor,” the car that stars in the movie “Gone in 60 Seconds.”
