Kaitlyn A. Cramer
Executive Partner
Kaitlyn has focused most of her career on litigation – whether it be the defense of first-party No-Fault, third-party automobile negligence, or general liability and premises claims. She also devotes time to assisting clients with litigation planning before a lawsuit is filed by regularly counseling corporate and insurance clients on pre-suit investigations through drafting position papers, developing a discovery plan, or handling negotiations. She then takes these cases to trial, securing no-cause verdicts against fraudulent providers and obtaining successful results through summary disposition.
Kaitlyn first developed a passion for advocacy in international moot court programs during law school, where she was recognized as a top oralist in the Midwest and one of the best appellate advocates in the world at international rounds in Washington, D.C. Using those natural skills, she is a key member of the firm’s appeals practice. She advocates for clients in the Michigan appellate courts by defending dismissals at the trial court and creating new precedents.
Kaitlyn regularly contributes to the Institute of Continuing Legal Education and various industry groups, presenting key legal updates and strategies for peers in the litigation world or to commercial and insurance litigation clients. She has been asked to comment on No-Fault Act reforms and present litigation strategies to defend third-party automobile negligence claims annually.
Having grown up in Michigan’s thumb region, Kaitlyn is also dedicated to protecting the state’s farmers and agricultural producers. She regularly advises these groups on food safety practices and litigation developments in today’s competitive commodities market.
Kaitlyn Cramer views each of her cases as an opportunity to present well-crafted and creative legal arguments, resulting in case dismissals and multiple trial victories for insurance clients.
