Info | William H. Ryan Jr., the First Deputy Attorney General, serves as the number two position in the Office of Attorney General. A career prosecutor, Ryan oversees all legal and administrative matters for the Office of Attorney General. As First Deputy he also serves as the principal advisor to Attorney General Corbett on all major issues.
As First Deputy, Ryan continues in the job that he had held under Attorney General Jerry Pappert. Prior to that, Ryan served for seven years as the head of the Attorney General's Criminal Law Division, guiding the office's work in criminal investigations, organized crime, narcotics insurance fraud and other criminal matters.
Attorney General Tom Corbett praised Ryan, saying, "he is a tough and experienced prosecutor. Bill is also a top flight manager who knows the Office of Attorney General inside and out. I look forward to working with him during the next four years."
