Karen is one of the strongest coverage attorneys I work with.
Karen always knows everything about the case. Negotiations are seamless and she is very collaborative in her approach to working together.
Karen has a thorough and nuanced understanding of insurance coverage law. She is a strong strategic thinker, an exceptional oral advocate and an extemporaneous thinker.
Karen does an amazing job of taking analysis and drilling it down to the main points of what we need to focus on and planning strategy based on this. Her communication and responsiveness are strong.
Karen is terrific to work with. She consistently makes us aware of things we need but haven't asked for. She knows our matters inside and out and how they fit into the industry as a whole.
