O’Brien & Ryan is pleased to announce that Dan Ryan has been named to the International Academy of Trial Lawyers. The Academy is a group of truly elite trial lawyers representing both sides of the Bar: prosecutors and defense lawyers in criminal cases, and plaintiffs’ and defense counsel in civil litigation. While the majority of the Fellows come from the U.S., the Academy includes lawyers from more than 30 countries. Fellowship is by invitation only, and trial lawyers are invited to become Fellows only after an extremely careful vetting process.

On February 23, 2017 Dan Ryan spoke to the Philadelphia Area Society for Healthcare Risk Management in Plymouth Meeting, PA on the subject of current trends and recent case law in medical malpractice litigation.

In February, 2017, Heather Hansen presented Advanced Torts: Law and Practice at both Stanford University Law School and Berkeley Law at UC Berkeley in California.

On January 12, 2017, Heather Hansen presented Spine Surgery Trial: Anatomy and Prevention to Orthopaedic residents at Tufts University Grand Rounds in Medford, Massachusetts.

On Monday, November 28th, 2016, O’Brien & Ryan associates Caitlin McCauley, Jaime Johnson, Lisa Hrunka and Paul Peel prepared a meal for the patients at Hope Lodge in Cheltenham, PA with donations from OBR employees.
