Court records

Trellis attorney record · civil cases only

No civil cases found with her as counsel. Her practice is criminal and immigration law, and her common name makes matching difficult.

Covers civil state trial court records. Criminal cases are a known blind spot, so an empty or short record usually reflects a criminal practice, not a lack of experience.
