Graves Garrett Greim LLC (GGG) is pleased to announce Sal Paris joined the firm as an associate. Hailing from Kansas City and a graduate of Rockhurst High School, he earned his legal degree at the University of Missouri School of Law, graduating magna cum laude and Order of the Coif.

Paris previously completed a summer associateship at GGG, where he received beneficial training, mentorship, and exposure to the firm’s clients and casework. His private practice includes an ability to handle an impressively diverse mix of complex commercial litigation, white collar criminal defense, and government investigations.

“Sal’s familiarity with our firm’s approach to handling highly visible and consequential matters in unique practice areas makes him a valuable asset to our firm,” GGG partner Lucinda Luetkemeyer said. “We look forward to helping him grow and develop his advocacy skills to serve the specific needs of our clients.”

Prior to his stint as a summer associate at GGG, Paris completed an internship and clerkship at two other local law firms and spent time working in the Missouri State Public Defenders Office in Columbia, Missouri. He completed his undergraduate studies in justice systems with a minor in Spanish from Truman State University.

While in law school, Paris served as a note and comment editor for the Missouri Law Review, which also published an article he authored.
