Mr Ryan Dumm > Seyfarth Shaw LLP > Seattle, United States > Lawyer Profile

Seyfarth Shaw LLP stands out for its ‘exceptional expertise’ and ‘collaboration’ among its construction team. The national practice is led by California’s Michael McKeeman, who handles contract drafting, negotiation, and disputes; and New York’s Alison Ashford; who structures complex infrastructure projects such as airports, rail stations, and educational facilities. Washington DC’s ‘incredibly knowledgeable’ Charles Wall advises on large projects delivered through public-private partnerships, design-build, and progressive design-build. Washington DC’s Bennett Greenberg and Michael Wagner are similarly experienced while also arbitrating and litigating government contract and infrastructure disputes. San Francisco’s Gregg Dulik and Los Angeles’ new recruit Brenda Radmacher bring further dispute strength to the practice, often handling claims involving bid protests, mechanic’s liens and defects arising from public and private projects. In the Seattle office, Meghan Douris and Ryan Dumm advise clients on the challenges associated with constructing high-rise buildings and heavy civil infrastructure developments, while Ashley Sherwood deals with multi-party actions involving various contract-based claims.
