Experience

Halli focuses on complex litigation, antitrust enforcement, and class actions. She joins us from American University Washington College of law where she spent several semesters interning at the Department of Justice Antitrust Division and participated in the Criminal Justice Clinic prosecuting misdemeanor offenses in Anne Arundel County. Halli was particularly drawn to Hausfeld because of its reputation as a leading global law firm known for creating innovative solutions for complex litigation issues.

The firm’s public entity portfolio includes:
