• Obtaining a writ of mandamus leading to the dismissal of a significant personal injury claim.

Samantha graduated from Baylor Law School, where she helped develop the 2018 mock trial competition known as Top Gun and assisted with the creation of the Baylor Law School Executive LL.M. in Litigation Management, the first of its kind in the nation.
