Thompson Hine’s innovative SmartPaTH, a client-focused legal service platform, matches Blackney’s ethos like puzzle pieces.
He highlighted the importance of providing clients with a crystal ball, giving them a clear, data-driven view into the future expenses of their legal battles.
This ensures that clients aren’t just spectators but informed decision-makers throughout the litigation journey.
Drawing from a rich tapestry of legal expertise, Blackney’s five-month tenure as a partner at Smith Gambrell followed an illustrious 11-year chapter at Freeborn & Peters LLP.
But perhaps, most intriguing is his prior role as a state’s attorney, where he wore the hat of a special prosecutor in McHenry County, Illinois, showcasing his knack for handling high-profile cases with precision and flair.
Frank Chaiken, the captain steering Thompson Hine’s Chicago office, likened Blackney’s courtroom prowess to a storyteller who can transport jurors into the very heart of complex legal tales, making them resonate as personal experiences.
