Shawn Organ is a trial lawyer who lives to be in the courtroom – thus making the formation of a litigation boutique a pinnacle of professional accomplishment. From serving as a federal law clerk for the Honorable George C. Smith, to teaching Trial Advocacy as an adjunct professor at the The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law, Shawn’s passion has been trial work. To that end, Shawn, as an associate, then a partner, at Jones Day, Columbus, has defended some of the nation’s largest entities, including banks, automotive companies, retailers and health care companies in class actions and complex commercial disputes throughout the United States. Some of Mr. Organ’s clients have included: Cardinal Health, Cummins Engine, Eastman Kodak, IBM, Bausch & Lomb, Macy’s, Elder-Beerman, LTV, Montgomery Ward, Bank of America, NationsBank, LaSalle, Lehman Brothers, Stride Rite and MovieTickets.com.

In addition to teaching trial advocacy, Shawn also serves on the board of Legal Aid of Central Ohio, volunteered for four years to coach and mentor a local, inner-city mock trial team, and in 2009 was named in Columbus C.E.O. magazine’s list of “Top Lawyers.”
