Hinckley Allen is pleased to announce the addition of litigation partner Brandy R. Harty to the St. Louis Metro / Madison County, Illinois office. She is the fourth partner and seventh lawyer to join the firm’s new Midwest office, which opened late last year. With her extensive background in complex litigation, especially in areas like product liability, toxic and mass torts, and asbestos defense, Brandy’s experience bolsters the firm’s regional and national litigation offerings.
“Brandy is an exceptional addition to our litigation team,” said Jerry Petros, Litigation Chair at Hinckley Allen. “Her impressive track record in navigating complex litigation sets her apart. Brandy’s commitment to the St. Louis metro area and her ability to deliver results for clients will further strengthen our growing toxic tort team and enhance the service we provide to our clients across the region.”
Brandy has built a well-earned reputation for being a strong advocate, offering a protective yet practical approach to defending their vital business interests. For more than two decades, she has provided trustworthy advice to product manufacturers and suppliers (automotive products, electrical equipment, and industrial equipment), contractors (design, engineering, and construction firms), and premise owners (manufacturing and industrial facilities).
“I am thrilled to be part of Hinckley Allen’s litigation team and help the firm establish a strong foundation in the St. Louis region,” said Brandy R. Harty. “Hinckley Allen has a well-earned reputation among clients and competitors as one of the nation’s most effective business law firms. I look forward to working with the other talented attorneys to represent our clients’ interests and help them successfully navigate their unique and complex business matters.”
In 2024, Hinckley Allen opened its eighth office in Illinois and seventh office in Fort Lauderdale, adding attorneys in every office and in the firm’s primary practice groups: Corporate & Business Transactions, Real Estate, Litigation, Construction & Public Contracts, and Trusts & Estates.
