Biography
Prosecution's Instincts, Applied to Recovery
Career
Maggie McPherson joined Holdsworth & Inkwell as an associate in 2021. She practices in the firm's Insurance Recovery group, working primarily with Vincent Gambini on policyholder-side first-party property and business interruption matters following catastrophic weather events.
Background
Before joining the firm, she served as a Deputy District Attorney in the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office for four years. The transition from prosecution to civil insurance recovery practice has been deliberate; she brings a trial-oriented perspective to the firm's Texas-focused storm and freeze litigation.
