Brad Hartz

OVERVIEW

Before earning his law degree, Brad was commissioned as an infantry officer in the U.S. Army, and was awarded the Bronze Star for service in Iraq. He attained the rank of captain before resigning his commission. Military service taught him the importance of honest and candid assessment of both risk and opportunity, the necessity of moral courage to admit and learn from mistakes, and the significance of marshalling commitment and resources to achieve an objective. 

After military service and law school, Brad worked as a lawyer with leading international law firms, providing wide-ranging litigation services in many major industries and assisting clients in solving diverse legal challenges.  His practice taught that there is no substitute for experience, and impressed the importance of honing practical proficiency, specifically in the courtroom, but also throughout all stages of litigation.  Brad further learned to appreciate the critical importance of leveraging a comprehensive litigation strategy to achieve favorable results.

Brad currently manages litigation risk for a Fortune 100 company.  In this role, Brad has both served as lead counsel and partnered with premier law firms to resolve disputes.
