Biography

Ryan G. Blanch, business attorney serving Los Angeles

Ryan G. Blanch is a managing partner based in Los Angeles, CA. The practice focuses on Business, Criminal Defense, and Drug Crimes. Ryan has over 26 years of legal experience. Rated 5.0 out of 5 from 6 client reviews. Ryan works from Los Angeles, California and takes on business matters across the region.

Ryan Blanch's path to crisis and PR was not a direct one. Upon graduating law school he went to work for the firm n/k/a Hunton Andrews Kurth in New York.

After devoting four years of his career to Big Law, Ryan Blanch left to launch a (mostly) white-collar criminal defense firm in New York city, where he represented Wall Street firms and FINRA regulated professionals, hip-hop artists, C-Suiters and an airline in myriad investigations and cases running the gamut from insider trading and health care fraud to tax evasion and the occasional homicide case.

Invariably Ryan Blanch's clients would inquire about restoring their, and their companies', reputations in the wake of the negative news cycle that followed the legal crisis and persisted long after the case had been resolved in their favor.

For years the clients were directed to retain outside reputation management and PR agencies, to no avail. Hence Repute PR was born inside of the law firm's offices out of necessity and with the singular aim of combining legal muscle with marketing and PR flare to launch and enhance brands and navigate crises on behalf of our clients.
