About this firm

After beginning their legal careers at the same large firm, Ms. Verdi and Mr. Ogletree pursued separate paths and both gained extensive experience at some of the most prestigious law firms in Washington, D.C. They united to form Verdi & Ogletree, combining that experience and providing their clients first-rate and cost-effective legal services. Together, Ms. Verdi and Mr. Ogletree have experience in the courtroom, board room, and arbitrational tribunals. They have argued cases throughout the country. Both are aggressive litigators, but understand that oftentimes matters require creative solutions to produce the best possible result for clients. While many lawyers advertise that they are litigators, the attorneys at Verdi & Ogletree have actual courtroom experience in trying both bench and jury trials.
