Mr. Ward practices at Drew & Ward in civil litigation, residential and commercial real estate, as well as family law, estate planning, probate, corporate, and personal injury law.
He is a graduate of Denison University (B.A., 1978) and the University of Cincinnati (J.D., 1986). Mr. Ward was admitted to the bar in Ohio in 1986, and the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Ohio in 1987.
In 1996, Mr. Ward represented an illegitimate child in a landmark case, ultimately decided by the Ohio Supreme Court, which ruled that such children have rights under the Ohio Parentage Act in wrongful death cases even when paternity has not been established prior to death. The high court also ruled on constitutional "equal protection" grounds. Prior cases had incorrectly relied on inheritance laws to bar such claims.
