Partners for Your Business and Intellectual Property Needs Our firm was founded by Tom Dunlap and Dan Grubb, both U.S. Army Cavalry officers who had worked together as partners at a small commercial litigation firm in Virginia. Law is a second career for both Tom and Dan. Mr. Dunlap worked on Wall Street in institutional custodies for a number of companies including PaineWebber and Bank of New York. Dan Grubb, with a master’s degree in journalism, was the newsroom manager and television anchor for the ABC news network in Anchorage, Alaska, for more than 10 years. Jeffrey Weaver, a law school classmate of both Mr. Dunlap and Mr. Grubb, was invited to join the firm in 2004, bringing his MBA and years of corporate law experience from the 100-plus attorney firm he left behind. Mr. Weaver brought with him the business and legal skills to enable the Dunlap, Grubb & Weaver, PLLC to provide legal support in complex and high-dollar-value corporate, securities and real estate transactions. The firm’s corporate and transactional practice has since flourished, and the firm has continued to add a tremendous amount of legal talent to its ranks including Philip Chang and Geoffry Dureska. By adding experienced partners to the firm such as experienced intellectual property litigators Mike Whitticar, Ellis Bennett, David Ludwig. The firm is poised to continue to successfully service the intellectual property and business needs of companies in our region and across the nation.
