Greenberg Traurig, LLP announced the continued growth of its national litigation practice with the addition of William Dorsey as a shareholder in the firm’s Denver and New York offices. Dorsey brings more than two decades of experience representing financial institutions, private equity firms, family offices, and other sophisticated clients in commercial disputes.
Dorsey joins the firm from Blank Rome LLP, where he was a founding partner of the Chicago office and the practice group leader for the firm’s business litigation group.
“Will is a nationally recognized trial lawyer with an impressive reputation as a go-to advocate for financial institutions and other leading business clients,” Greenberg Traurig Chief Executive Officer Brian L. Duffy said. “His courtroom experience, deep understanding of the financial services sector, and ability to manage complex litigation across jurisdictions strengthen our platform and reinforce our commitment to serving clients facing high-stakes disputes.”
Dorsey said Greenberg Traurig’s global platform and nationally recognized financial services and real estate capabilities made the move a natural fit.
“Greenberg Traurig offers an exceptional platform to help me continue serving clients at the highest level,” Dorsey said. “The firm’s depth in financial services and real estate, combined with its collaborative culture and geographic reach, creates tremendous opportunities to expand existing client relationships and support those clients wherever their litigation challenges arise. I’m excited to join Paul [Financial Services Litigation Practice Chair Paul J. Ferak] and my new colleagues to continue building on the firm’s strong reputation in these industries.”
Dorsey earned his J.D. from the University of Michigan Law School and a B.A. from Claremont McKenna College.
