What I Can Do for You

As an experienced employment discrimination attorney with over 20 years of experience enforcing anti-discrimination statutes at the state and federal level, dealing with federal sector as well as private sector EEO cases, I'm able to quickly and accurately assess any legal problem and find the best argument to help you or your client.

My writing and research skills and my have been honed throughout my career, from my English major in college, to my membership on the Public Interest Law Journal at Boston University, where my Note was published. Also, I have over 8 years of experience drafting Final Agency Decisions (FADs) for federal agencies.

I have significant experience drafting the full range of discovery documents, motions and responses, deposition questions and memoranda.

I'm an effective and efficient researcher, able to find the answer to almost any legal question in a very short time, and craft strong and well-supported legal arguments.

My extensive experience enforcing discrimination statutes as an investigator and adjudicator has given me a unique perspective, which can be valuable in evaluating cases. After years of working as the neutral party, I think like a judge. I'm experienced in looking at issues from all sides, considering all relevant facts and legal arguments, and weighing evidence

As a FAD writer, I act as the fact-finder, making decisions on the merits of federal agency discrimination cases. My experience, both as an investigator and a FAD writer, has trained me to to look at the facts and legal arguments objectively, without the unconscious bias in favor of your client that can come with being an advocate. Because of this, I can assist you in evaluating your case as a fact-finder might.

A creative mindset and strategic thinking abilities are two of my primary strengths. I'm adept at looking at the facts and the law from fresh angles. This allows me to craft compelling legal arguments which can strengthen even weak cases.

In fact, I love the challenge of finding the perfect language to use to support an argument that might not seem obvious at first glance. Several attorneys I have worked with have won motions in difficult cases where the law was against them, based on legal arguments I crafted.
