Reuters: Growing Dinsmore Adds M&A, Litigation Teams in Midwest and Denver

Reuters spoke with Dinsmore Finance Committee and Intellectual Property Department Chair Josh Lorentz last week for its article on Dinsmore's impressive national growth, which in July has included a doubled headcount in Denver via a new construction litigation group, a dynamic M&A team in Detroit and Chicago, and a 15% attorney increase in Indianapolis, including the first Dinsmore public finance attorney in the state.
