Lori Bullock is the managing partner of BG’s Des Moines, Iowa office and handles cases across several litigation areas, including labor and employment, sexual harassment, disability discrimination, education law, and civil rights. Lori has won trailblazing Title IX settlements for student-athletes at colleges and universities across the U.S. for violating the federal civil rights law prohibiting sex discrimination at educational institutions receiving federal funds, including an appeal against Michigan State University that was appealed up to the Supreme Court of the United States. Lori was also a member of the BG team that won a $5 million arbitration award against My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell for his 2020 election fraud claims. Lori has been named to the 2024 Lawdragon 500 X – The Next Generation list, as well as Best Lawyers in America, Litigation – Labor and Employment.
Joshua Hammack handles complex commercial litigation from inception through appeal, focusing on constitutional issues, statutory interpretation, intellectual property, product safety, insurance, contracts, and Title IX discrimination, among others. Just this year, Joshua argued a pair of appeals in the Second and Sixth Circuits concerning an issue of first impression—what it means to be a “consumer” under the Video Privacy Protection Act. Joshua also successfully argued a Title IX appeal before the Ninth Circuit, where the court vacated orders denying class certification for female student-athletes at Fresno State. Additionally, he secured an important appellate reversal last year in the Sixth Circuit, which agreed a challenged Kentucky law likely violated the Dormant Commerce Clause. Joshua was previously named to the 2024 Lawdragon 500 X – The Next Generation list, and is also a Best Lawyers Ones to Watch, Appellate Practice and Commercial Litigation.
Elliott McGraw’s practice focuses on complex commercial disputes where she represents institutional investors and asset managers in contract and tort-based claims arising from financial fraud, accounting malpractice, and corporate malfeasance. Elliott also advises organizational and individual clients navigating government or internal investigations and has represented clients in front of Congressional committees, including the 2019 Impeachment Inquiry into then-President Donald Trump. Elliott was a member of the BG trial team that recently won a $40 million jury verdict in a Texas federal court in a fraud and breach of fiduciary duty case. She has also been recognized as a Best Lawyers Ones to Watch, in Privacy and Data Security Law.
Nick Warden, a partner in our Boise, Idaho office, focuses his practice in commercial litigation, with a particular focus on complex business litigation in the agricultural, chemical, and finance industries including accounting and auditor malpractice.
