  • Jan 2009 - Present

  I joined the law firm as one of the firm’s original attorneys with a group that broke off from our former law firm. Together we built, grew and managed what has become a highly regarded and one of the largest women-owned law firms in the South, with offices in New Orleans and Houston. Rapidly promoted three times throughout my tenure, I am now an equity partner. We are routinely sought out, based on our reputation, to represent Fortune 100-500 corporations across the nation in high-stakes, high-profile litigation. I interface frequently with client leadership, employees and in-house counsel. BUSINESS LEADERSHIP • As a hiring partner and one of four owners, I contributed to the firm being selected as a top workplace in New Orleans from 2018–2021. www.nola.com/news/top-workplaces-2021 • I helped hire and manage large, top-performing teams, including through challenging years of Covid. CLIENT ACHIEVEMENTS I consistently deliver both results and value to clients by judiciously managing cases to stay within alternative fee arrangements 100% of the time. I managed the development of highly efficient, effective, and defensible e-discovery protocols for major clients to reduce burden of complying with voluminous document production demands. I have helped negotiate major settlements which have saved clients significantly from the original demands. I saved clients significant money in potential damages and legal fees by resolving disputes early through summary judgment or voluntary dismissal, and failing that, through trial and appeal. Currently, I am defending some of the most significant, high-profile, litigation in Louisiana, ongoing since 2014.
