JORDAN AUSTERMANN, counsel, is a seasoned, passionate, and intuitive litigator who welcomes challenges and thrives in the rapid-fire, high-stakes environment of the courtroom.
As a member of Maddin Hauser’s Subpoena Management Assessment Response Team (SMART), Jordan plays a critical role in protecting the interests of businesses and individuals that face the multidimensional issues, practical headaches, and potential landmines that come with being on the receiving end of a third-party subpoena. Leveraging her extensive and diverse litigation experience, Jordan can quickly and efficiently identify the core issues implicated by a subpoena and develop approaches designed to minimize burdens and risks for her clients. Her diplomatic inclination, which stands side by side with her forceful, strategic advocacy, helps her find solutions that lower the temperature, spare her clients from avoidable conflicts and costs, and yield manageable, favorable outcomes.
Jordan comes to Maddin Hauser with 15 years of experience in collection litigation, creditors’ rights, consumer debt matters, and high-volume civil litigation. Her work focused on complex contested matters, post-judgment enforcement, garnishment disputes, motion practice, and courtroom advocacy. The insights she gained from this experience provide ample benefits for the clients she serves in her current role, while her proven agility and ability to parse and address complex matters make her particularly well-suited to parrying overly intrusive or legally questionable subpoena requests.
Beyond litigation, Jordan has significant experience in court docket strategy, legal staff supervision, workflow management, audit readiness, compliance-sensitive processes, and legal operations.
