Bio:Ms. Baxter's career has been marked by self-motivation and accomplishment. After starting a family, she completed undergraduate and law school on scholarship in six and a half years, excelling academically throughout and graduating summa cum laude. As a newly admitted attorney, she successfully defended a client in a high-profile criminal matter that reached the Louisiana Supreme Court. Within a year of her admittance to the Mississippi bar, she was managing litigation in literally thousands of cases in that state as well as for her Louisiana clients. She made history in Louisiana's Civil District Courts by using Daubert challenges to disqualify two plaintiff experts in two separate cases at the same time, and has also successfully defended a state District Court judge brought before the judicial commission on impropriety charges. Because of her success and reputation, she was selected as one of three national trial counsels by one client. She is equally adept in the business side of the legal profession, having set up offices from scratch for former firms and managed offices with as many as 20 employees. She also recruited the only Fortune 500 client ever represented by one of these firms.
