Hahn Loeser & Parks is pleased to announce that Craig Owen White has been appointed National Chair of Strategic Relations and Community Outreach. In his newly created position, White remains a practicing senior partner in all aspects of business and corporate transactions law, while assuming a leadership role that aligns with the Firm’s growth plans across six offices.
White recently completed a tenure as Partner-In-Charge of the Cleveland office that began in 2019. He will now work with the Partners-in-Charge of each office on strengthening relationships with key groups and individuals in six communities. White will report directly to the firm’s CEO and Managing Partner, Stanley R. Gorom III.
“Craig has been a pillar of the Cleveland community for decades and has built many relationships that have positively impacted our entire Firm,” said Gorom, adding that “we are fortunate to be able to apply Craig’s ability, experience and constant willingness to help in each of our offices.”
“It’s an honor to be asked to assist in building and strengthening Hahn Loeser ties in business and civic communities across our Firm’s nationwide footprint” remarked White, adding that “we have exceptional leaders in each office that I look forward to working with and bringing our vision of a collaborative firmwide culture to the next level.”
In 2024, the Western Reserve Land Conservancy presented White with its highest honor, the Sugar Maple Award. Last year, he was also re-selected for membership with The National Black Lawyers – Top 100 for Ohio.
