Big legal moves are afoot in Bucks County where Dan Grieser has been tapped as the new County Solicitor. He has the unanimous backing of the Board of Commissioners, securing a bipartisan nod this past December 3rd. Grieser's journey through the legal ranks of Bucks County has been steady. Since joining the Law Department in 2021, he's served as Assistant and Deputy County Solicitor, now climbing to the department's summit.
With Grieser at the helm, the county's legal concerns, spanning from advice to the Commissioners to managing litigation involving the county and its 2,000+ employees, are in experienced hands. It's a hefty task, overseeing a myriad of legal battles and advising entities including the Salary and Retirement Board. This decision, detailed in a press release from the county, marks a continued investment in the Law Department's leadership.
Prior to his Bucks County tenure, Grieser's life in law has been decorated and diverse. He's carried the weight of a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army Judge Advocate General’s Corps, and after hanging up his military hat, served municipal stints across Pennsylvania. Names like Newtown and Middletown Township figured into his pre-county days, painting a picture of a legal career deeply embedded in Keystone State soil.
Grieser's credentials are strong, backed by an LL.M. in Military Law. Bucks County's statement proudly notes his education from Audobon High School to Moorhead State, from the University of North Dakota Law to the Judge Advocate General’s Legal Center and School. It's a resume that suggests both rigor and dedication - traits the county is clearly banking on as Grieser settles into his new role.
