Ryan represents clients of all sizes in a wide range of business matters.
Ryan came to his legal career with a strong interest in the business world: a former business school student, he has long been especially interested in business development, and he and his wife are now small business owners themselves. He understands firsthand the challenges business owners face and the importance of solid legal counsel.
At Husch Blackwell, Ryan represents businesses in complex commercial litigation in state and federal courts, defending and supporting client companies involved in construction, real estate and other business litigation. Ryan also handles labor and employment matters, defending companies when sued by employees, such as in cases involving allegations of discrimination, harassment or retaliation. He regularly helps employers solve legal questions and assists with implementation of company policies to comply with state and federal regulations.
Ryan’s interest in law stems from a passion for helping people and solving problems. He began his career as a prosecuting attorney where he litigated cases involving financial crimes, working with victims and their families to navigate challenging situations. There’s nothing he enjoys more than achieving a win for his clients, and he loves strategizing for the best way to argue a case. Ryan’s aim is always to know the facts, the law and the case in question backwards and forwards in order to find the best resolution possible for a client.
