Krista L. Baughman

Krista Baughman represented me from 2024-2025, during one of the most difficult and professionally destabilizing periods of my career, involving defamation from a co-worker and from the company itself. From the very beginning, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism, clarity, and integrity. ... Krista is not only a highly skilled trial attorney, but also deeply thoughtful and strategic in how she manages complex, emotionally charged litigation. One aspect of her representation that I appreciated immensely was her consistent transparency. She regularly forwarded correspondence and updates from opposing counsel, ensuring that I always understood where my case stood in the litigation process. I was never left wondering what was happening, whether progress was being made, or whether I needed to follow up — her communication was proactive, clear, and steady throughout. Reading the correspondence between Krista and opposing counsel further reinforced the strength of my decision to have her represent me. Her writing and advocacy were precise, intelligent, and well-reasoned, even when engaging with multiple attorneys on the other side. After listening/reading Krista converse with the opposing counsel, they sounded less educated than her- and frankly, not nearly as smart. She articulated arguments with a level of clarity and sophistication that stood out, and it gave me great confidence knowing my case was being handled with such competence and care. What truly sets Krista apart is her ability to advocate fiercely while remaining ethical, measured, and deeply human. She listened carefully (through all my tears), respected my voice, and ensured I felt informed and supported at every stage. At times when the process felt overwhelming, her steadiness and professionalism made a meaningful difference. She was able to take my emotional turmoil and translate it into power legal derelict. I am profoundly grateful for Krista’s representation and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking a principled, intelligent, and committed advocate. Any client fortunate enough to work with her will be in excellent hands. She is the total package, and worth her weight in gold.

Our company, as well as many other defendants, was involved in a 4+ year class action lawsuit. Krista and her team did an excellent job of defending our position and managing us through the never ending process, while always being very mindful of time & costs. I would highly recommend Krista, and wou...ld definitely use her services again.

Litigation can be very tricky, tedious, extremely stressful and a huge unwanted financial commitment however, Krista guided me through the process even when the situations were mostly unfavorable. She was calm, collected and gave me the encouragement needed to stay strong and positive. I am aware tha...t a substantial amount of hours went in fighting the case and there were countless deadlines that required a lot of paperwork, she stepped up to the plate each time delivering exceptional work. She put in the constant effort needed during the entire year my case was in progress. Krista and Harmeet helped me winning each and every motion even at times when the odds didn't seems to be in our favor. I don't believe it was just a stroke of luck but I attribute it to 100% skills and emphasizing on my case strong points. I dealt with her on a regular basis and to know she had my best interest at heart was very comforting. Her deep understanding of the Intellectual Property knowledge proved to be substantially beneficial as the final outcome was in our favor. I can't thank her enough for leading me through the difficult time with constant professionalism and significant advice at every turn. In the end, her aggressively smart negotiations helped finalize the case.
