Outstanding litigator
Lauren revile fee worked for my firm as an associate and co-counsel in employment discrimination cases. Coming from a background as an EEOC litigator, she has inside knowledge of how the agency works. If anyone can convince the EEOC to issue a finding in favor of an employee or convincing the agency to take government legal action against an employer guilty of violating employment discrimination laws, she's the "go to" attorney. Lauren is also gifted writer for court filed briefs, which can make all the difference in whether a case proceeds to trial. She is also,a talented analyst of evidence to determine its value in trial. I highly recommend her.
