In addition, Lane, a U.S. Army veteran, has a passion for helping his fellow veterans. He currently has several pro bono cases pending on their behalf against the U.S. Department of the Army. “I was excited at the prospect of joining a firm planting a flag in Dallas and I look forward to helping build out the office and establishing Reed Smith’s stellar reputation in the city where I was born and raised,” Lane said in a statement released by the firm.
