About Me
I’m an associate in the Seattle office of Perez & Perez Law PLLC. With years of experience in insurance defense, I’m excited to now represent crime victims and victims of negligence fighting against insurance companies.
My Legal Background
I have years of extensive litigation experience, including representing individuals in both civil and criminal matters. I have previously worked as a corporate associate, where I reviewed and drafted contracts in a variety of complex matters related to employment, commercial real estate, and business acquisitions. I have represented clients in complex civil litigation matters, including claims of construction defect, breach of contract, premises liability, personal injury, and professional malpractice.
Education
I graduated cum laude from Mercer University School of Law. While in law school, I served as Secretary for the Mercer Law Trial Lawyers Association and as a Features Editor of the Mercer Law Free Press. I interned at both the San Diego and Atlanta Federal Defender offices and spent her last year on Mercer Law’s Habeas Clinic, defending clients on habeas petitions in Superior Court..
Hobbies
Outside of the office, I enjoy hiking, discovering Seattle’s restaurants, and spending time with my friends and family.
