Keturah represents clients facing state attorney general (AG) investigations and litigation. Pragmatic and results-oriented, Keturah helps her clients work successfully with AG offices and navigate complex regulatory landscapes to achieve outcomes aligned with their strategic business goals. When her clients are faced with an AG investigation, Keturah guides her clients through complex discovery processes while advocating to narrow the scope of inquiry. If a lawsuit has been filed by an AG’s office, Keturah zealously defends her clients and develops creative legal defenses in often uncharted territory. Should those defenses be denied, Keturah has significant experience briefing issues on appeal that raise critical questions about AG enforcement authority and interpretation of state consumer protection and antitrust laws. She also regularly advises clients on compliance and best practices designed to avoid regulatory scrutiny in the first instance.
Keturah represents a wide range of clients, from entrepreneurial startups to Fortune 100 corporations, in a diverse array of industries, including hospitality, transportation, financial services/fintech, telecommunications, renewable energy, oil and gas, and auto manufacturing, among others. She represents companies of all sizes and at every stage in the business life cycle — from fledgling online operators to longstanding institutions — across a wide range of issues, including consumer protection, data privacy and security, antitrust, price-gouging, credit card surcharging and other payments regulations, and utilities regulation. Keturah particularly enjoys representing new and emerging businesses, for whom a state AG investigation can have game-changing consequences.
Keturah is based in Portland, Oregon and Washington, D.C., and also represents clients facing civil litigation in Oregon.
Keturah also serves as a lecturer in law at The George Washington University Law School; is co-chair of the Oregon Women Lawyers’ Community Service Committee; and maintains an active pro bono practice.
