The Federal Practice Group is pleased to announce Isabel Cottrell is the newest Associate to join the firm’s ever growing Federal Employment Law Group. Ms. Cottrell is fluent in both English and Spanish and has substantive experience in federal employment law. She will provide representation for her clients by pursuing claims of discrimination at the EEOC and defending her clients against disciplinary and adverse actions.

Prior to joining The Federal Practice Group, Ms. Cottrell worked for two other prestigious Washington, D.C. law firms that focused on federal employment. In her first position out of law school, Ms. Cottrell began as a law clerk before being elevated to associate and served as an associate for two years at her second firm.

“We were looking to expand our federal employment practice group and we were happy about the talented candidate pool from which we had to select,” said Federal Practice Group Founding Partner Debra D’Agostino. “However, Isabel’s legal skills stood out immediately and separated her from the group. We found her reputation with both clients and attorneys to be stellar and we are very pleased she joined us.”

While pursing her juris doctorate Ms. Cottrell put her Spanish-speaking skills to great use when she served an internship at the National Center for Refugee & Immigrant Children. Other internships include a term at the New York State Supreme Court where she worked for Justice Ling-Cohan. She also served as a student representative for the Unemployment Action Center in Manhattan.

Ms. Cottrell received her Bachelor of Arts from Sewanee: The University of the South. She earned her juris doctorate at New York Law School.

Ms. Cottrell is admitted to practice in both Virginia and the District of Columbia.

About the firm: The Federal Practice Group is dedicated to providing a wide breadth of legal services globally to include international dispute resolution. The firm maintains a website at fedpractice.com with additional information about its attorneys, achievements, and news stories involving the firm’s work.
