In addition, Linda has experience in e-discovery, including negotiations with the federal government involving subpoenas for corporate or business materials and electronically stored information.
Linda gained significant experience in appellate practice and criminal trials and investigations while serving more than 20 years as an Assistant District Attorney in Philadelphia. For 12 years, Linda was Chief of the District Attorney’s Insurance Fraud Unit, where she led a team of attorneys and investigators, handling over 2,000 investigations and over 1,000 prosecutions for insurance fraud and related offenses.
