International law firm Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner LLP (BCLP) announced today that Farron Curry has joined as a partner in its newly launched Seattle office. Farron joins three months after BCLP officially opened the Seattle office – the firm’s first in the Pacific Northwest. She joins new BCLP Partners Jennifer Campbell and Allison Krashan, all from Schwabe Williamson & Wyatt, a Pacific Northwest firm where they were shareholders.
Farron is a seasoned attorney who brings with her extensive litigation experience. A graduate of the International Association of Defense Counsel’s Trial Academy, her practice focuses on complex litigation involving commercial, employment and product liability claims. She works with clients across industries, including retailers, manufacturers, health care systems, and charter schools, whom she has successfully represented through all stages of litigation in state and federal courts, in arbitrations, and administrative investigations.
“We are thrilled to welcome Farron to our team,” Jennifer said. “Her exceptional litigation skills, combined with her practical advice on litigation avoidance, make her a valuable asset to our clients firmwide and particularly those in the Pacific Northwest, which has become a litigation hot-spot for many clients in recent years.”
Farron regularly advises clients on a variety of employment and business-related issues, including employee discipline and termination, leaves of absence, wage and hour issues, discrimination and harassment, disability and accommodation, non-competition issues, consumer protection laws, and risk avoidance.
A frequent author and speaker on industry topics, she has been featured numerous times on the Washington “Rising Stars” list for her business litigation experience.
Farron’s addition to BCLP’s Seattle office continues the firm’s steady momentum of strategic hires who can leverage the firm’s global platform with multioffice, multidisciplinary practices to best serve its international client base.
“I’m excited to join BCLP as it expands into the Seattle legal market,” Farron said. “I am passionate about providing practical, effective solutions to clients and look forward to being part of such a talented team of attorneys.”
