About
Natalie calms the rattled, encourages the discouraged, and leads by example. Most of all, she loves getting results for her clients.
Natalie has played a significant leadership role in the Philadelphia legal community, and has extensive experience as an attorney in the region. Her clients find it reassuring to know that when she walks into a courtroom she most likely has already appeared before the presiding judge, knows opposing counsel, and understands how to work with them both.
Natalie was born in Ukraine and emigrated to the United States when she was 7 years old. She is fluent in both Russian and English. When Natalie is not practicing law, she enjoys relaxing at the beach (locally or in more exotic destinations), traveling, and keeping her pulse on what is new in Philadelphia’s ever changing restaurant scene.
