Ryan McCollum has always had a passion for fighting for justice and support deserving individuals during their times of need. With a strong sense of duty and commitment to service, he brings a unique blend of expertise and determination to every case he handles. As an United States Army Veteran, Ryan developed the values of honor, integrity, and discipline, which continue to guide his legal practice today.
Ryan has chosen to devote his life fighting for those who may not have the ability to do so on their own.
“When a person is injured, the cards are stacked against them in a fight against insurance companies–and sometimes even the government–to receive the compensation they deserve. I work at Whitley Law Firm because I believe in representing the underdog in that fight.”
When he’s not advocating for his clients, Ryan enjoys spending time outdoors grilling and barbecuing and playing guitar and bass.
