Law firm Murphy & McGonigle has appointed Patricia Wallace as a partner to spearhead the firm’s strategic discovery and information management (StraDIM) group. 

Wallace (pictured) has years of experience as a complex commercial litigator and champion of the use and understanding of electronic technology in the practice of law.   
 
“Murphy & McGonigle continues to implement the most ambitious and visionary project of uniting technology, security, and discovery that I have seen in any securities law firm. The design and work of our tech team – which is led by attorneys – fits perfectly as the firm combines nimbleness with brilliance,” says Wallace.
 
Wallace’s interest in electronic technology began in 2006 when she represented a Fortune 10 company required to produce electronic data from multiple sources that included proprietary and HIPAA-protected information. Upon later joining a boutique securities litigation firm in 2007, Wallace created and implemented the firm’s e-discovery planning, strategies, and practices.
 
Over the last nine years, she has focused on representing clients in connection with SEC investigations and prosecutions as well as in other complex commercial matters. She also served as counsel to the receiver appointed as part of the FTC’s prosecution of mortgage fraud claims.
 
Wallace grew up in Hampton Roads, Virginia, where she served as a law clerk to the Honourable Henry Coke Morgan, Jr, of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. Following her clerkship, she joined Hunton & Williams, where her practice focused on privacy, media law and appeals.
