Operating as a premier contract attorney and freelance legal consultant, Margaret provides elite corporate legal departments and law firms with the high-level analytical support, heavy-lift litigation drafting, and complex transactional oversight required to execute major projects seamlessly.
By stepping in as an on-demand asset, Margaret allows firms to scale their operations effortlessly, offering the sharp instincts and deep knowledge base of a senior-level practitioner without the overhead of a permanent partner.
Drafting high-stakes demurrers, motions for summary judgment (MSJs), and appellate briefs with meticulous precision.
Reviewing, restructuring, and negotiating master service agreements (MSAs), commercial leases, and tech vendor contracts.
Navigating California's strict, evolving regulatory landscape, including data privacy and labor compliance frameworks.
Directing massive document reviews and deposition preparation for high-value, complex litigation matters.
Margaret earned her Juris Doctor (J.D.) from Loyola Law School, Los Angeles, a campus renowned for producing some of Southern California's fiercest and most ethically grounded advocates. During her time at Loyola, she excelled in rigorous legal writing and analytical advocacy programs, building the foundation for a highly adaptable legal career.
Admitted to the State Bar of California in December of 1999, Margaret began her career cutting her teeth in the fast-paced world of civil litigation. Over the next two decades, she bore witness to the evolution of the California legal ecosystem.
Her transition into high-level contract attorney work stems from a passion for the pure practice of law — allowing her to focus entirely on deep-dive research, masterclass drafting, and strategic problem-solving for a diverse portfolio of clients.
