Valerie Makarewicz Featured in Law360: “Carlton Fields Adds Longtime Federal Prosecutor in LA”

Valerie Makarewicz was featured in Law360 in an article titled, “Carlton Fields Adds Longtime Federal Prosecutor in LA.” The piece discusses her addition to the firm’s White Collar Crime and Government Investigations Practice as a shareholder in its Los Angeles office, highlighting her more than 20 years of complex criminal and civil litigation experience.

"What Carlton Fields has that is different and what's actually harder to find these days is a platform that's large enough to support my practice, but nimble in that it's letting me have the bandwidth without layers of bureaucracy," she said. "What Carlton Fields gives me is a platform to do that and build something here long term on the West Coast."

Her joining the firm expands both its Los Angeles presence and its white collar and tax practices on the West Coast. "Carlton Fields is looking toward growing the areas where I can contribute to, which is white collar and tax practices across the offices. … I have a very niche, precise and sophisticated practice that takes years to build. Carlton Field saw my potential to not only grow its depth in litigation, but also the ability to grow that on the West Coast."
