WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Caroline works incredibly well with our senior executives."
"She is always on top of things."


MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"To provide the best legal advice and advocacy to my clients, I aim to both dig in and step back. I try to know as much as possible about the details of my clients’ cases, while also taking time to consider the big picture, think ahead, and strategize. I also think it’s important to be friendly—many of our clients have to spend a lot of time with us!"
