Lisa started her career as a law clerk in the District of Columbia Superior Court where she was fortunate enough to observe, first hand, some of the best trial attorneys in the nation’s capital.  Lisa followed her clerkship as an associate at Jordan Coyne Savits & Lopata and Semmes Bowen & Semmes defending businesses in litigation with a primary focus on workers compensation defense.  After her experience in private practice Lisa spent 12 (twelve) years as Assistant General Counsel in the Litigation Section of the General Counsel’s office of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA).  In this capacity Lisa defended the transit authority in personal injury and employment litigation.  Lisa was a first chair trial attorney for 12 (twelve) years and during that time tried over 75 (seventy-five) cases in the District of Columbia and Maryland state and federal courts.  This unique opportunity gave Lisa the opportunity to take more cases to trial than a typical associate in private practice and allowed her to develop enhanced trial, litigation, mediation and settlement negotiation skills.. Finally, Lisa spent the last 12 (twelve) years in house working for Marriott International as an attorney in Marriott International’s Risk Management department managing all insurance covered employment litigation as well as general liability, workers compensation, property, fidelity, fiduciary and cyber litigation against the company.  As a result, Lisa has a clear understanding of the business impact of litigation against an employer and has a deep and clear understanding of effective litigation strategies to save costs and resolve litigated matters effectively and efficiently..
