Known for her organized, detail-focused, and relational approach to managing both cases and teams, Katie has extensive experience leading all aspects of litigation, including pre-suit investigation, fact and expert discovery, claim construction, summary judgment, mediation, and trial. She also provides her clients with strategic counseling, particularly in the area of trade secrets, to develop and implement long-term plans that minimize risk and optimize market positions.
Katie’s pro bono practice includes working alongside AdkAction to support the environmental sustainability, community health, and cultural vitality of the Adirondack region. In conjunction with Kids in Need of Defense, she provides legal defense to unaccompanied migrant and refugee children in asylum matters. She also serves on the board of the National Homelessness Law Center and teaches a course in trade secret law at University of California, Davis School of Law.
In her leisure time, Katie pursues her lifelong goal of joining the ranks of the Adirondack 46ers by scaling all 46 of the highest peaks in the Adirondack Mountains, an endeavor made all the more rewarding now that she is often joined on hikes by her son.
