Former U.S. Attorney Joins Haynes and Boone

Former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Texas Ryan Patrick has landed at Haynes and Boone exactly one month after announcing his resignation as the chief law enforcement officer of one of the largest districts in the country.

Patrick, a President Trump appointee and the son of Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, began his tenure at the beginning of 2018 and oversaw an office that charged nearly 25,000 defendants in almost 22,000 cases during his three years as U.S Attorney.
