Office:

Washington, DC

Mary Margaret Pearce

Director of Administration

Mary Margaret oversees the administrative department and is responsible for establishing and maintaining evolving administrative policies and procedures; liaising with HR, finance, development, and IT; and working closely with Office Directors on both operations and administrative staff management. She directly supervises office managers, the regional administrator, and legal practice administrator. She also assists with special projects related to technology and establishing best practices for the legal support team. 

Before transitioning to the legal world in 2014, Mary Margaret worked for five years as a stewardess on private yachts cruising the Pacific, Caribbean, and Mediterranean. Fond childhood memories make Lookout Mountain, Ga., and Edisto Island near Charleston, S.C., her favorite places to visit in the Southeast. She attended an all-girls equestrian camp called Valley View Ranch every summer on Lookout Mountain, and learned to shrimp, crab, and fish in marsh creeks on Edisto Island.
