Professional Biography

As a criminal defense attorney, Tracy represents many of the region’s major corporations, financial institutions, public officials, and high-profile individuals in state and federal investigations. Her experience includes successfully defending corporations and their officers in health care fraud and environmental and defense contracting cases, as well as individuals charged with offenses such as RICO, mail fraud, extortion, securities fraud, and bribery.

Tracy represents individuals and corporations both pre- and post-indictment. She has extensive experience litigating matters before the Office of the US Attorney, Department of the Attorney General, Bureau of Prisons, Department of Justice, and several other state and federal regulatory agencies.

In addition, she has worked on regulatory cases, such as criminal wage and labor disputes and violations of OSHA.

She was appointed by Sen. Edward M.
