Ryan Spiegel Named National Judge Advocate for Navy League of the United States

Ryan Spiegel, Principal

Ryan Spiegel was named National Judge Advocate by The Navy League of the United States.

Spiegel was appointed during a special meeting of the Steering Committee on Monday, November 6, 2017. His term will continue through the Navy League’s June 2018 annual convention in Portland, Oregon.

The National Judge Advocate serves as the General Counsel of the Navy League, advises the organization and the National President, and serves on the Executive and Steering Committees and the Board of Directors.

Spiegel chairs the firm’s Government Contracts practice and is a member of its Litigation, Corporate, and Science & Technology practice groups. 

Alan Kaplan, Navy League National President, stated, “We are excited to have Ryan as part of our Navy League leadership team and look forward to the positive contributions he will make to our organization. He is a great addition to our team and we are thrilled to welcome him as our new National Judge Advocate.”

“The values and mission of the Navy League are near and dear to my heart,” Spiegel stated. “As we prepare to commemorate Veterans Day, I recall my grandfather Robert Suchman who served valiantly as an AEM1 based on the USS Bonhomme Richard during WWII in the Pacific Theater and received a Purple Heart. It was always clear that his service to the Navy and to our nation meant a great deal to him. I’m honored to be welcomed into this organization and look forward to working with all of the honorable men and women of the Navy League to serve the organization and advance its mission.” 

The Navy League will welcome Spiegel at their fall board of directors meeting in Sterling, Va.
