Remember when Alicia Silverstone said in Clueless that her father was a litigator, the "scariest kind of lawyer"? Well, that's Elizabeth Lippy. She's just the right kind of scary. She knows her way around a courtroom and how to woo a jury. (Literally, but more on that later). No matter what hat she's wearing (and there are a lot of them), she's a litigator right down to the bone. As the partner/co-founder of the criminal defense and personal injury firm Fairlie and Lippy PC, the Founder and Executive Director of TACT (Trial Advocacy Consulting & Training LLC), and the Director of Trial Advocacy at Temple University Beasley School of Law, Elizabeth has been sharpening her trial chops her entire career and now she's teaching others how to do do it. She's a fierce advocate for her clients, having extensive experience defending criminal defendants accused of sex crimes, and an advocate for women being authentic in the courtroom.
