Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati announced Dec. 3 that it elected 16 new partners. Among the elections is Wilmington-based Ryan Greecher, who is set to become a partner in the firm's corporate department.

His position, along with the positions of the other partners-elect, is set to be effective Feb 1, 2019.

Greecher's practice is focused on providing Delaware corporate law advice with respect to fiduciary duties and statutory requirements through various steps in a company's life cycle, including incorporation; preferred stockholder investments; purchases and sales of assets, dividends and capital resources; tender offers and mergers and acquisitions; and liquidations and dissolutions.

Of the elected partners, Greecher is the only one based in Wilson Sonsini's Delaware office.
