Stinson Expands Business Litigation Team; Hires Former FTC Attorney Jonathan Ripa in Minneapolis
Stinson LLP proudly expands its Business Litigation practice and welcomes Partner Jonathan Ripa to the team. Ripa brings far-reaching experience in intricate business litigation and merger enforcement matters in many industries throughout the nation.
Before joining Stinson, Ripa was an attorney with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), where he enforced antitrust laws by investigating mergers and litigating merger challenges. His vast government experience enables him to provide a unique and valuable perspective when advising clients on antitrust matters.
“I am excited to deploy my skills as both an advisor and litigator on behalf of Stinson’s clients,” said Ripa. “During my time at the FTC, I gained a deep understanding of competition law and the complex and ever-changing world of business.”
Pete Schwingler, a partner in the firm’s Business Litigation division, echoed those sentiments.
“Jon’s recent FTC experience will help clients and colleagues navigate the ever-changing enforcement climate,” Schwingler said. “Whether in healthcare, technology, banking or other industries, Jon’s background on the other side of the table is a tremendous asset to our firm and our clients.”
Ripa is admitted to practice law in Minnesota, Virginia, and Washington, DC. He received his J.D. from The George Washington University Law School and his undergraduate degree from Lehigh University.
