In complex litigation and appeals, Gavin makes it simple.
Gavin draws on a depth of experience—as a classroom instructor, software developer, and EMT—to tell the winning story when it matters most. He has represented technology companies and government clients with billions on the line, while focusing his pro bono practice on individuals' appeals.
Before joining Orrick, Gavin clerked for Judge Sandra Ikuta on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. He graduated summa cum laude from Washington University in St. Louis School of Law, where he was a law review editor, teaching assistant in legal writing, and moot court champion.
