She has extensive experience managing cases from inception through resolution, including conducting fact investigations, drafting and arguing motions, taking and defending depositions, coordinating expert discovery, and representing clients at mediations and settlement conferences.

Arianeh’s practice includes handling high‑volume dockets as well as complex, multi‑party matters. She is experienced in assessing risk early, identifying key liability and damages issues, and positioning cases for favorable resolution – whether through dispositive motion practice, negotiation, or trial preparation. Her clients value her clear communication, practical judgment, and ability to navigate challenging factual and procedural landscapes.
