Tell us about your biggest client wins this year. In a number of unrelated cases, I obtained highly favorable resolutions for executive women that were fired shortly after they announced their pregnancies to employers or were fired while on maternity leave. The rampant discrimination that continues to take place against women simply because they become pregnant is something I am committed to fighting against. I believe that forcing companies to make meaningful changes to the way they treat female employees is the biggest victory I can hope to achieve, and I did so many times this past year.

What’s the best lesson you learned as a young lawyer? Simply doing what is expected of you is never enough.
