In March 2020, after two years of pre-trial litigation and less than one month prior to trial, a team Kate led obtained a dismissal with prejudice for Concord Management & Consulting, a Russian company indicted by Special Counsel Mueller and prosecuted by the U.S. Department of Justice for alleged interference in the 2016 U.S. election.

In 2017, after two years of pre-trial litigation, another team led by Kate obtained a dismissal with prejudice for HCR ManorCare in a False Claims Act case relating to alleged unnecessary rehabilitation therapy intervened in by the U.S. Department of Justice.

As part of her practice, Kate regularly deals with issues related to electronic discovery, including collection, review and production of Electronically Stored Information (ESI). Based on her experience in this area, Kate is a member of the firm’s Records and E-Discovery (RED) practice group.
