Travis Ritter

Our standard is simple: zealous, honest advocacy; substantive excellence.

Travis is the firm's litigation chair and heads the Florida office. His practice focuses on high-stakes business litigation nationwide, with an emphasis on aggressive plaintiff-side representation.

He honed his skills as a hired gun, litigating high-stakes matters for a diverse range of clients. He now focuses on representing corporate clients and individuals who need zealous prosecution or defense, and whom he believes have been wronged.

Travis served as a federal appellate and trial-court law clerk, where he worked on a wide range of criminal and civil matters, including death-penalty cases. He practiced at Boies Schiller Flexner LLP, where he defended and prosecuted a broad spectrum of disputes, including high-stakes legal-malpractice matters. He has represented America's largest companies in business disputes, defended a major cigarette manufacturer at trials, defended a gun manufacturer in product-defect cases, and represented individuals in complex partnership disputes and employment matters. Between his time at Boies and his return to litigation full-time, Travis founded and ran a private equity firm – experience that informs how he reads the deal documents at the center of the firm's post-M&A and partnership work. He played rugby and basketball in college.

Travis is actively litigating post-M&A and business-partnership disputes, prosecuting and defending employment matters, and pursuing plaintiff-side class actions – with more than half a billion dollars in damages currently at issue across the United States and Delaware.
