Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani is pleased to announce the continued expansion of its presence in downtown Cleveland, reflecting the firm’s deep commitment to serving clients throughout Ohio and across the United States. With a prime location overlooking Lake Erie, the Cleveland office enhances GRSM’s regional influence and bolsters the firm’s full-service capabilities in one of the Midwest’s most dynamic legal and business markets.
Led by Office Managing Partner Gregory Brunton, the Cleveland office is home to a seasoned team of litigators and transactional attorneys who represent public and private clients in complex legal matters at the local, regional, and national levels. Cleveland-based partners David Campbell, Timothy Chai, Roland De Monte, Robert Lynch Jr., and Donald Slezak, along with a team of 15 local attorneys, offer depth and versatility across a broad range of service areas.
The Cleveland team brings significant strength in high-stakes litigation, including matters before the Ohio Supreme Court. Core areas of practice include complex commercial litigation, energy and eminent domain, class actions, insurance coverage, trade secret and non-compete disputes, mass torts, employment and labor, products liability, and professional liability.
With a strong focus on employment and labor law, many of the Cleveland attorneys are regularly called upon to lead employment disputes, labor negotiations, and regulatory matters nationwide. Since the launch of GRSM’s Ohio offices in 2017, the Cleveland team has successfully handled federal and state administrative actions, played key roles in multidistrict litigation, and worked in close collaboration with the firm’s offices in Columbus and Cincinnati to support clients across the region.
“As GRSM continues to grow its national platform, the expansion of our Cleveland office reinforces our strategic commitment to Ohio and the surrounding region,” said Gregory Brunton, Cleveland Office Managing Partner. “Our team of attorneys combines deep local insight with national reach, offering clients exceptional service in high-stakes litigation, complex transactions, and labor and employment matters.”
Timothy Chai echoed Brunton’s perspective, adding, “The Cleveland team is focused on strategic growth, and this new office space provides a strong foundation for that next chapter. It positions us to expand our team, strengthen client partnerships, and continue delivering high-level legal service across Ohio and beyond.”
The Cleveland office is also distinguished by its active engagement in the legal and business communities. GRSM attorneys maintain leadership and membership roles in a variety of professional organizations, including the Ohio State Bar Association, Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association, Cleveland Association of Civil Trial Attorneys, Ohio Association of Civil Trial Attorneys, Energy & Mineral Law Foundation (EMLF), and DRI, among others.
Located in the heart of downtown Cleveland, the office offers modern amenities and collaborative workspace designed to foster attorney and client engagement while maximizing flexibility and efficiency. The office’s proximity to courthouses, major businesses, and civic institutions strengthens the firm’s ability to provide responsive, practical legal counsel across Ohio and beyond.
