What clients and colleagues say about Ingrid

I have worked with Ingrid in both the capacity of General Counsel and as a trial lawyer. Ingrid is by far one of the best and exceeds expectations in every way. I never felt more confident about handling an employee relations matter due to having Ingrid as counsel. Ingrid takes a proactive approach because she is very good at anticipating implications and outcomes. I would recommend Ingrid hands down to any organization eager to bullet proof their compliance or looking to enhance their legal team.

Client · December 2016

You will be hard-pressed to find anyone as smart, well-rounded, or effective as Ingrid Rainey. Ingrid has a sharp legal mind and a very good feel for contract law. Beyond that, however, she has a genuine talent for customer-facing activity, which is a rare combination. When you factor in that she can have those customer-facing interactions in English, Spanish, French or Farsi, you have a one-in-a-million find.

Having an attorney like her on the team is priceless. She is an attorney that understands business development and the entire sales cycle. She drafts and negotiates agreement terms and conditions along with guiding the team through the complexity of federal and state compliance. I would highly recommend Ingrid for any team or organization.
