Business & Commercial LitigationConstruction Disputes

Claire runs discovery and trial preparation across the firm’s commercial docket, with a focus on electronic evidence — which in practice means she is the person who decides what a custodian list and a search-term negotiation are going to cost the client before either is agreed.

She has built the trial notebook on four of the firm’s last six trials.

Representative matters

  • Reduced a proposed review population from 1.4 million documents to 90,000 by renegotiating the custodian list, without a motion.
  • Found the message that established knowledge in a trade-secret case, in a channel the other side had not listed.
  • Prepared and defended eleven depositions in a single construction matter.
