EDUCATION
Prior to attending law school, Lynn Darty worked in the communications industry, where she had roles in community development, broadcasting and public relations. She grew fond of the fast pace, diverse workforce and tight deadlines. This on-the-job training provided Lynn with an invaluable background for her current litigation practice at Christian & Small. She understands the importance of staying calm under pressure and appreciates that every case has its own legal questions and cast of characters.
Lynn believes that when it comes to client service, the little things can make the biggest impressions on the people you’re serving. Quick responses, resourceful problem-solving and consistent communication are keys to her strong client relationships.
