About Ryan
Ryan Platt earned his law degree from the University of Wisconsin Law School in 2012 after finishing undergraduate research at Colorado College in 2006, where he majored in political science and worldwide affairs. He came to law school after a liberal arts education that emphasised the intersection of politics and international issues. The timeline from his degrees suggests a steady trail into litigation work.
He is admitted to practice in each Illinois and Wisconsin. Early in his professional legal career he took on roles that exposed him to plaintiff-side advocacy. In 2019 he used to be an associate at The Illinois Hammer Injury Law Office Dworkin & Maciariello. That role involved case preparation, client intake and work on claims arising from injuries and accidents.
By 2023 he moved to Mike Agruss Law, where his title is indexed as lawyer. The change in firms marked a continuation of civil legal proceedings work. At each firms he treated elements common to private damage practice: drafting court filings, conducting evidence-gathering process and assembly with clients to review case strategy. Those duties shaped his daily practice and court preparation.
Platt keeps lively club within the State Bar of Illinois and the State Bar of Wisconsin. He participates in bar things to do and adheres to the professional requirements set by those organizations. Colleagues describe him as pragmatic in strategy; he frames legal problems in practical terms and focuses on the steps had to pass instances forward. He combines courtroom preparation with awareness to the procedural details that topic in contested cases.
Outside of courtroom, he has continued professional improvement tied to litigation practice. His background in political science and worldwide affairs sometimes informs how he evaluates evidence and narratives, especially when cases require contextual evaluation. He has constructed knowledge across client intake, discovery management and bargaining, drawing on the education he acquired at Wisconsin Law and the hands-on work at two Illinois companies.
He now practices at Mike Agruss Law, where he handles civil claims, which includes personal injury matters.
