Graves Garrett partner Eddie Greim has been selected to serve a term on the Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies’ national Free Speech & Election Law Practice Group executive committee.

At Graves Garrett, Greim focuses his practice on free speech and election law, complex commercial litigation, internal investigations and whistleblower claims. His free speech and election law experience has included numerous constitutional challenges to election and campaign finance laws; representation of clients in state and federal ethics and campaign finance enforcement actions and investigations; initiative petition drafting and litigation; litigation and advice regarding First Amendment protections for petition circulation; representation of not-for-profit clients before state regulators; and advice on campaign and election law compliance.

The Federalist Society is a group of conservatives and libertarians interested in the current state of the legal order, founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be.

The organization seeks both to promote an awareness of these principles and to further their application through its activities.

In addition to his national role, Greim currently serves as the president of the Kansas City Lawyers Chapter of the Federalist Society.
