After working as a crime analyst, Faith obtained a Litigation certificate from one of the first paralegal programs approved by the American Bar Association. Faith has extensive experience in all areas of litigation, including employment, securities broker regulation, environmental, construction and land use. Faith has considerable arbitration, FINRA, mediation and trial experience. Faith's forte is locating witnesses, assets and performing on-line research.
Faith uses various web-driven services and strategies to locate hard to find witnesses, assets that defendants have tried to hide, and other helpful background information. Particularly helpful to her sleuthing is Faith's Master’s degree in criminology and taking advantage of free training and on-line classes offered to law firms. Faith loves to attend lunchtime seminars and brown bag lunches to increase her professional knowledge. "Keeping current on the electronic state-of the-art search tools is critical to my job and it is paramount that I do my best to stay on top of the software and databases available. I studied criminal behavior in graduate school. When I’m looking for someone or their property, I enjoy engaging my more cunning and creative side. There is nothing more satisfying to me than being able to go to my attorney and our client and telling them we have been successful in our search.”
