Eckert Seamans Expands in Richmond

Eckert Seamans added three partners and three lobbyists to its Richmond office this week. All six come from the firm of LeClairRyan. The office, which opened last Octoberwhen a group of former Troutman Sanders attorneys made the jump, had been staffed by a single lawyer up until now.

Partners David Clarke, Thomas Lisk and Richard Savage III will be part of the government affairs and regulatory practice group. All three have extensive experience with lobbying, regulatory and administrative law. In addition three non lawyer lobbyists, Mary Fox, Nicole Riley and Lisa Foster have joined, forming a government relations group headed by Fox.

Eckert Seamans Cherin & Mellott, LLC is a national full-service law firm based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with two offices located in the Pittsburgh area and nine other offices located throughout the eastern United States.
