  • Interface with clients to clarify events, build rapport, and assess reliability and value as witnesses.
  • Manage a high-volume docket of open investigative matters without compromising attention to detail or quality of analysis.
  • Collaborate with the broader litigation team to transition cases that advance beyond the 90-day phase into full litigation.
  • Maintain a solutions-oriented mindset, showing emotional resilience and perseverance even in the face of legal dead-ends.
