King & Spalding continued its hiring streak Thursday, announcing that it’s bringing on a veteran of Howrey and Thelen for its construction disputes and international arbitration practice.

Stephen O’Neal is joining the firm’s San Francisco office after a nine-year stint at Jones Day. He is the 13th lateral partner King & Spalding has added this month, including six mass tort litigators from Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe and a trio of international arbitrators from Kirkland & Ellis.
