Lisa Lindhorst’s practice draws on eight years of trial work as a prosecutor. She has tried 29 cases to verdict and examined hundreds of witnesses. She was an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the Central District of California as well as the District of Columbia, and began her career prosecuting cases in the San Diego District Attorney’s Office. At WTO, her clients benefit from her courtroom fluency.
While a prosecutor, Lisa received the U.S. Department of Justice’s Impact Award, given to only two AUSAs each year in one of the largest U.S. Attorney’s Offices in the country. The award recognizes her productivity and her handling of some of the office’s most difficult cases. She also received the DOJ’s Exceptional Performance Award, and she earned the Special Achievement Award three times.
Lisa’s personal interests include powerlifting, competitive ninja warrior, and practical pistol training.
