About Susan
Biography
I am a member of the firm’s Litigation Department and the founder and co-chair of the firm’s Information Governance Practice Group and Discovery Services Practice Group. I understand how the Information Age has indelibly altered the way businesses make strategic decisions including the handling of high-stakes disputes.
I have served as trusted counsel to high level entrepreneurs, private equity firms and financial and accounting service professionals for fifteen years. I represent domestic and international businesses in bet-the-company litigation in federal and state courts, mediation and arbitration proceedings.
