Lisa Shu is a business and employment litigator with a proven track record of successfully defending her clients against claims arising out of the employment relationship.

In addition, Lisa has broad-based business litigation experience defending clients in multimillion-dollar disputes ranging from trade secret matters to contractual and product liability cases. Prior to joining Wilson Elser, she worked at a major law firm in Washington, D.C. defending government contractors against allegations of wrongdoing during procurement and contract management.
