Associate Attorney
-
Oct 2016 - May 2017
The majority of my work at Layman, Armitage & Thompson, PLLP involved plaintiff's litigation. My primary areas of practice were Complex Personal Injury, Traumatic Brain Injury, Insurance Bad Faith, and Real Estate. I was vital in obtaining multiple six-figure settlements at various stages of the litigation process including pre-suit and post-suit in mediation. I represented clients at all stages of litigation. My work was aimed at creating a winning case at trial while keeping options open for alternative dispute resolution. The majority of my time was spent investigating cases, performing in-depth legal research, crafting memorandum, working with clients - witnesses & experts, drafting compelling legal pleadings and staying apprised of recent developments in my areas of practice.
