She has extensive experience with cases involving violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Rehabilitation Act, Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), and Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA). Stephanie was recognized by Lawyers of Distinction in 2018 for her excellence in civil litigation.

She represented clients before the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia and the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland. She began her career as a lawyer at another Silver Spring law firm, where she gained valuable experience handling cases involving ADEA, Title VII, USERRA, and state employment discrimination law. She represented clients before the EEOC, MSPB, and Maryland Commission on Civil Rights.

While attending law school at the Touro College Law Center, Stephanie interned with the Legal Aid Society of Nassau County in Hempstead, N.Y., the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York in Central Islip, N.Y., the U.S. Army Judge Advocate General’s Corps in Vilseck, Germany, and the Federal Communications Commission in Washington, D.C.
