As of April 1, Husch Blackwell officially has a new Chair. Catherine Hanaway assumed the position, succeeding Greg Smith. She had been elected to the position by the firm’s partners about a year ago, and this time allowed for a smooth transition. Catherine joined the firm in 2013 and is the firm’s first female Chair. She is a former U.S. Attorney and Missouri Speaker of the House. She represents leading global and closely held companies in civil and criminal investigation and in business litigation.
