Brian A. Glasser
Brian, a Rhodes Scholar and a founding partner in the firm, started his career as purely a civil and criminal trial and appellate lawyer. His consistent involvement in high-stakes commercial litigation expanded his practice to include negotiating and managing the execution of billions of dollars worth of business transactions.
Today, Brian maintains a diverse practice. While managing and supervising many of the firm's lawyers, he remains deeply involved in our clients' most pressing issues. For example, Brian recently was selected to be trial counsel for a national product liability case in West Virginia, was lead counsel in the firm's consumer class-action lawsuit against H&R Block ($62.5m settlement), and helped manage and execute dozens of complex business transactions.
