She also defends clients nationally in fair housing litigation and complaints filed with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and state and local agencies. One of her passions is providing compliance training on fair housing laws and regulations.
Ms. Anderson also serves as a Special Discovery Master, making recommendations to the Collin County State District Court on appropriate discovery rulings in compliance with the Texas Rules of Evidence and Texas Rules of Civil Procedure.
