Greim honored with 2019 Significant Sig Award

Graves Garrett partner Eddie Greim will be a recipient of the 2019 Significant Sig Award, given to Sigma Chi fraternity alumni who have achieved high levels of professional success.

Sigma Chi recently announced the 139 recipients who will be honored at the 82nd Grand Chapter in June at the Little America Hotel in Salt Lake City, Utah. Awarded annually since 1935, the fraternity has recognized more than 1,800 with the Significant Sig Award.

Greim was a member of the Xi Xi Chapter of Sigma Chi while earning bachelor’s degrees in economics and political science from the University of Missouri, where he graduated summa cum laude in 1999. He went on to earn his Juris Doctor from Harvard Law School.

At Graves Garrett, Greim focuses his practice on free speech and election law, complex commercial litigation, internal investigations and whistleblower claims. He has been recognized for his successful representation of businesses and individuals in commercial litigation while also being named a “go-to” lawyer on policy and constitutional issues.

Recently, Reuters interviewed Greim for a story previewing oral arguments in the U.S. Supreme Court in a case examining claims of gerrymandering and electoral map manipulation; Greim filed an amicus brief in the case for the National Republican Redistricting Trust with Graves Garrett partner Lucinda Luetkemeyer.

Greim will be joined in the 2019 Significant Sig class by five members of the United States Congress, Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Pace, best-selling author Michael Connelly, and Kansas City attorney and Mizzou alum Jim Polsinelli. Previous winners include late-night talk show host David Letterman (Ball State, 1969), country music artist Luke Bryan (Georgia Southern, 1999) and Academy Award-winning actor and director Warren Beatty (Northwestern, 1959).
