Donna King Perry Returns to Dinsmore’s Board of Directors
January, 2020 - Louisville, Kentucky
Dinsmore & Shohl LLP leadership has elected Donna King Perry to return the firm’s board of directors.
Perry joins the 18-member board for a three-year term effective immediately. Each Dinsmore office region is represented by at least one seat on the board. Perry represents the Kentucky offices. She returns to the board after an eight-year hiatus and is looking forward to working with new members and seeing how the firm’s growth since 2012 has brought both opportunities and challenges.
Perry led the merger between Dinsmore and her previous firm, Woodward, Hobson & Fulton, L.L.P in 2009. Prior to the merger, she had become the first-ever female office managing partner at a major law firm in the state of Kentucky.
She focuses her practice on labor, employment and general litigation. Her work includes all aspects of pre-litigation investigation, evidence and witness preparation, trial and appellate work, and responding and participating in agency investigations, including the Departments of Labor and Civil Rights, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and Kentucky Commission on Human Rights. She is also a trained and experienced mediator and has completed extensive mediation training with Duke University and the University of Kentucky.
Perry has been named a top attorney in Chambers, Best Lawyers® and Super Lawyers®; she was named by Louisville Business First as one of 20 people to know in law in Louisville in 2019.
