Linda Singer

Linda Singer is a Partner and Chair of the Public Client Practice Group, a practice she created when she arrived at Cohen Milstein in 2009. Ms. Singer represents governments and attorneys general in complex cases, bringing the experience and resources of the firm to bear on high-profile litigations and investigations. Prior to entering the private sector, Ms. Singer spent much of her career in public service and the not-for-profit sector. She served as the Attorney General of the District of Columbia, then the seventh-largest state Attorney General’s office in the nation, overseeing a staff of more than 350 lawyers. As Attorney General of the District, Ms. Singer developed new initiatives to combat gun violence and expanded enforcement litigation aimed at protecting consumers, children, tenants and victims of domestic violence. Her experience as Attorney General gave her deep insight into the powers and duties of Attorneys General and the role that law firms like Cohen Milstein can play in supporting their enforcement priorities.
